Our dental PPC Solution

Skylift’s approach to Dental PPC is research-first, intent-driven, and measurement-obsessed. In paid search, intent is everything. A search for “toothache help” requires a different ad and landing page than a search for “best clear aligners.” We structure your account to capture patients at the exact moment of decision. We utilize iterative testing and a Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) mindset to lower your Cost Per Lead (CPL) while increasing lead quality, ensuring you aren’t paying for people looking for “free dental work.”

Here is why our outcome-framed approach works for your practice:

  • Instant Market Visibility

While SEO takes months, PPC puts you at the top of Page 1 immediately. We help you capture market share instantly, making this ideal for new practice openings or filling gaps in hygiene schedules.

  • High-Value Case Targeting

We separate campaigns by service line. We allocate budget specifically toward high-revenue procedures like dental implants, veneers, and full-arch reconstruction to maximize your return on ad spend (ROAS).

  • Elimination of Wasted Spend

We aggressively manage “negative keywords.” We block searches for terms like “cheap,” “school,” “jobs,” or “medicaid” (unless applicable), so you never pay for clicks that won’t convert into paying patients.

  • Geo-Targeted Efficiency

We use precise radius targeting to ensure your ads only show to people within a drivable distance of your practice, preventing budget leakage into areas you cannot serve.

  • Conversion-Focused Ad Copy

We write ad copy that pre-qualifies the patient. By highlighting insurance acceptance, financing options, or emergency availability in the ad text, we attract the right click.

  • Transparent Cost-Per-Acquisition

We don’t hide behind vanity metrics like “impressions.” We track exactly how much it costs to generate a phone call or appointment request, giving you clear visibility into your marketing efficiency

How Our Process Works

Discovery & Audit

We review your past Google Ads performance (if any) to identify wasted spend. We analyze your local market competition to determine the budget required to compete for top spots.

Timeline: 3-5 business days.

Step 01

Strategy & Build

We build your account structure from the ground up. This includes keyword research, writing ad copy, setting up extensions (call buttons, location maps), and configuring conversion tracking.

Timeline: 1-2 weeks.

Step 02

Launch & Calibrate

We take the campaigns live. The first few weeks are focused on "bid management"—adjusting how much we pay per click to find the sweet spot between volume and cost.

Timeline: Ongoing weeks 2-6.

Step 03

Measure & Optimize

We monitor the account daily. We run A/B tests on ad headlines and landing pages. We review the "Search Terms Report" weekly to add new negative keywords and refine targeting.

Timeline: Ongoing

Step 04

Scale & Expand

Once the core campaigns are profitable, we look to expand. This might include retargeting ads for patients who visited but didn't book, or launching campaigns for new specialty services.

Timeline: Ongoing monthly/quarterly reviews.

Step 05

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions about which plan fits you best? Whether you want to see results from your industry, understand how our guarantees work, or simply talk through your goals — we’re here to help.

How quickly will I get new patients?

PPC is immediate. Once we launch the campaigns, your ads can appear at the top of Google within hours. You can expect to start seeing calls and leads coming in during the first week of the campaign.

You pay Google directly for the ad spend (clicks), and you pay Skylift a management fee for the work of building and optimizing the campaigns. This ensures total transparency—we never mark up your ad costs.

For most dental practices in a standard US market, we recommend a minimum ad spend of $1,500 to $2,000 per month to generate sufficient data and lead volume. In highly competitive metros, this may need to be higher.

Yes. We build everything inside an account you own. You have full administrative access. If you ever leave Skylift, you keep the account and all the data we generated.

PPC is “renting” the top spot—you pay for every visitor, but the results are instant. SEO is “owning” the spot—it takes months to build, but the traffic is free. We recommend doing both to dominate the search page.

We use advanced click-fraud monitoring tools and manual IP exclusions to block suspicious activity. While we can’t stop every single invalid click, we aggressively filter out bot traffic and repeated clicks from competitors.

We cannot target people based on their insurance plan (Google doesn’t have that data). However, we can state “We Accept Delta/Cigna/etc.” in the ad copy to pre-qualify users and encourage clicks from patients with those plans.

Emergency campaigns are some of our highest performers. We bid aggressively on terms like “emergency dentist open now” or “broken tooth” to capture patients who need help immediately and often convert into long-term patients.

Lead quality is key. We target high-intent keywords to reduce flaky leads. We also advise your front desk on how to handle PPC leads quickly—speed to lead is critical.

We operate on a month-to-month basis. You are not locked into a long-term contract. You can cancel anytime after the first 30 days with a simple written notice.

Yes, this is called “Retargeting” or “Remarketing.” We can show display ads to people who visited your site to remind them to book their appointment. (Note: Google has strict privacy restrictions on healthcare retargeting, so we use compliant strategies to navigate this).
