How A Dental Office Cut Costs, Tripled Leads, and Built a Fully Booked, High-Value Practice

Case Studies
This dental office slashed lead costs by 80% and filled their calendar months in advance with high-value patients.

The Challenge

This Colorado dentist’s office operates in a densely populated and highly competitive market, with over 40 other dental offices within a 10-mile radius. Standing out was difficult. Competing efficiently was even harder.

They needed more than just online traffic. They needed qualified leads, full hygiene schedules, and a growing stream of high-revenue procedures, such as implants, veneers, and cosmetic services.

Marketing Issues

  • High local competition from over 40 area dentists
  • Elevated cost-per-click averages across the industry
  • Scheduling gaps in both hygiene and specialist services
  • Past campaigns lacked efficiency and long-term optimization

The Strategy

InSync Media launched a Google Ads campaign that was efficient from day one, but that’s not where the story ends. Over time, we continuously refined our targeting, creative, and bidding strategy to increase the number of verified leads and lower costs with every iteration. Our team became more precise, disciplined, and relentless in its pursuit of performance.

We focused not only on volume, but also on value. The result? We helped this office attract more high-ticket procedures alongside routine cleanings.

  • Built and optimized conversion-first Google Ads campaigns
  • Continually refined keyword targeting and audience strategy
  • Focused budget toward high-revenue services (implants, veneers, cosmetic dentistry)
  • Improved lead quality and reduced cost per lead over time
  • Tracked and verified every lead as a real phone call or form fill, not inflated bot traffic
