The dental practice version

Why it matters.

Take a patient leaving with a treatment plan for a crown and a filling. At home, they look at a printout from the practice software: codes, insurance estimates, tiny type. They are trying to decide whether to schedule, and the paper is no help. A clear summary layout in your brand, showing what is recommended, the cost estimate and how to book, helps them decide while the recommendation is fresh.

The same applies to the recall postcard, the membership plan brochure, the new patient welcome email and the monthly newsletter. These are small pieces, but they are where an office looks either organized or rushed. Patients use them to decide whether to come back.

What I would build

For a dental practice.

01Treatment plan and post-visit layouts

Print collateral when you need it: treatment plan summaries, post-op instruction sheets, membership plan brochures. Your clinical team supplies the content and approves it. I make it clear and readable.

02Recall postcards and emails

Email and newsletter design for recall reminders and practice news. Neutral wording that never mentions a patient's treatment, sent through a tool that keeps the patient list secure.

03Post templates for the team

Post and story graphics in your brand: team introductions, holiday hours, community events. Templates you can reuse without me when a staff member has a quiet afternoon between patients.

04Cosmetic case layouts, with consent

Case studies and before-and-after layouts for cosmetic work, used only with signed written patient authorization. Labeled honestly, with no suggestion that every patient will see the same result.

The mistake I see

Letting the practice software design your paperwork

Treatment plans, recall letters and statements printed straight from practice software are accurate and nearly unreadable. Codes, abbreviations and estimates in tiny type tell a nervous patient nothing. A designed summary that sits on top of the software printout does the explaining. The software keeps the records. Your brand should do the talking.

  4. You publish

    On your schedule, from your accounts.

  5. Step five is you.

    The free Receipt shows what your dental practice should fix first. About half a minute, no card.

Questions

What dentists ask.

Do you write post-op instructions?

No. Post-op and care instructions come from your clinical team, because they are clinical guidance. I design the layout, make the type large and the steps clear, and keep the brand consistent. You approve the final wording before anything is printed or emailed to a patient.

Are recall postcards still worth sending?

For some patients, yes. Some people still respond better to mail than to texts, and a well-designed postcard ends up on the fridge. Use postcards alongside texts and emails rather than instead of them. Keep the wording neutral, with no reference to any specific treatment.

Can we design a membership plan brochure?

Yes, and it is one of the more useful pieces for practices with uninsured patients. It should explain what the plan includes, what it costs, and how it compares to paying per visit, in plain language. It needs to match what the front desk says and what the website shows.

What comes after

Pairs well with.

Wrong problem? Pick again

I run and I keep losing jobs to

The list is not everything. Not on it? Pick “a business not listed,” or run the free Receipt. It works for any business.

Start here

See what your customers see.

The Receipt looks your dental practice up the way a customer would and itemizes what is costing you calls. It is free. Or skip it and book fifteen minutes with me.
