During the COVID-19 shutdowns of 2020, many dental practices embraced teledentistry so that they could offer their patients consultation and diagnostic services. Even after the practices reopened, teledentistry has continued to facilitate safe interactions and communication between dentists and their patients.
According to data from the American Dental Association, the number of dental practices in the country are steadily increasing. This is great news for dental patients, but not so much for dentists who are already dealing with stiff competition in the industry. As a dentist, you need to go out of your way to market your practice to survive in the increasingly competitive industry.
