Why DrGreat Uses Meta Ads: Our Multi-Channel Marketing Strategy for Dental Clinics

Why Meta Ads for Dental Discovery?

• Geographic targeting — We target ads to specific cities, postal codes, and neighbourhoods, directing local patients to clinics in their area.
• Demographic targeting — CDCP is targeted at Canadians without existing dental insurance — a segment Meta's platform can identify through interest and demographic signals.
• Language-based targeting — We run ads in Persian, Punjabi, Mandarin, and other languages, reaching immigrant communities who face the greatest difficulty finding dentists in their language.
• Retargeting — Patients who visit drgreat.ca but don't complete a search can be re-engaged with targeted follow-up ads.

Our Two-Track Campaign Structure

Patient-Facing Campaigns

These target Canadians actively seeking dental care. Ad copy focuses on CDCP acceptance, language matching, and the simplicity of using DrGreat. Landing pages are optimised for search completion — getting patients to a clinic profile page.

Clinic-Facing Campaigns

These target dental clinic owners and practice managers. Ad copy focuses on the value of claiming a profile and the transparent pricing of our Featured and Connected tiers.

SEO as the Long-Term Foundation

While Meta ads drive immediate traffic, our long-term patient acquisition strategy is built on organic search. Every clinic profile page on drgreat.ca is an SEO-optimised landing page targeting keywords like CDCP dentist [city], Farsi speaking dentist Toronto, and dentist accepting new patients [neighbourhood].
