Getting found online
Getting found online comes down to three things working together: patients have to trust what they see when they look you up, you have to show up regularly, and it helps to know what practices near you are doing. BiteTheSmile gives you a tool for each, so you’re not juggling five apps between patients.
The three pieces
| Piece | What it does | Where |
|---|---|---|
| A strong Google listing | Bring in your reviews, see your rating and reply rate, and answer every review safely. | Reviews |
| Consistent content | Draft captions in your practice’s voice and schedule posts ahead, so your feed stays alive. | Composer |
| Competitor insight | See what nearby practices are posting, pricing, and promoting, so you can stand out. | Competitors |
Each piece feeds the next. A strong review snapshot tells you whether to chase new reviews first. A finished smile becomes a before-and-after slider that stops the scroll. What you learn from nearby practices shapes what you say.
The order that works
You don’t have to do everything at once. Most practices start with their Google reviews — because that’s how new patients pick a dentist — then build a posting rhythm, then start watching the competition. Each step stands on its own, and each one makes the next easier.
Worked example
Dr. Nok owns a practice in Bangkok, and her practice manager runs the day-to-day. They start by importing the practice’s Google reviews, which shows a solid 4.6 rating but a reply rate of almost nothing. The manager spends a morning answering every review with a safe reply, then adds the two clinics down the road to the watch list. Once replies are flowing, she drafts a week of posts — a whitening before-and-after, a new-patient checkup tip, a note about evening hours. Within a month the listing looks active and the phone rings more on quiet afternoons.
