    How an Implant Clinic Generated 142 Patient Enquiries in 90 Days

    A private implant clinic was running generic 'dentist near me' campaigns attracting NHS patients and check-up inquiries. We rebuilt campaigns around high-value treatments, created implant-specific landing pages, and implemented call tracking by service type. Within 90 days: 142 implant enquiries at £32 CPL.

    The Challenge

    What We Were Dealing With

    The practice ran one generic 'dentist' campaign treating all search intent identically. Someone searching 'dentist check-up near me' (£150-250 value) and someone searching 'dental implants Bristol' (£3,500-12,000 value) got the same ads, same landing page, same bid. 80% of conversions were low-value check-ups.

    Cost per enquiry was £95 but masked the real issue: no call tracking by service type, no landing page separation, no audience targeting. Geo-targeting was 5-mile radius — wrong for implants where patients travel 30+ miles for a specialist. The practice had zero visibility into which enquiries were high-value.

    Our Strategy

    How We Did It

    01

    Campaign Restructure by Service Profitability

    Separate campaigns for Implants (high-value, aggressive bidding, broad geo), Cosmetic Dentistry (medium-value), and General/Emergency (low-value, tight geo). Forced spend prioritisation on high-value services.

    02

    Implant-Specific Landing Pages & Gallery

    Dedicated implant landing page with 25+ before/after cases, treatment timelines, pricing transparency (£3,500-12,000), and patient testimonials. Form completion rate increased from 4% to 11%.

    03

    Call Tracking: Service-Level Attribution

    Dynamic call tracking with unique numbers per campaign. Practice could track which calls were for implants vs check-ups and which converted to consultations and treatment.

    04

    Geographic Expansion for Implants

    Expanded implant geo-targeting from 5-mile to 30-mile radius (45-minute drive). General dentistry stayed local. Reached specialist-seeking patients who will travel for quality.

    05

    Audience Layering by Service

    Separated ad copy per service tier. Layered in-market audiences for dental implants, age 40+ demographic, and excluded existing patients to focus budget on new patient acquisition.

    The Results

    What We Delivered

    90 days: 142 implant enquiries (from ~18 previously, +690%). Cost per qualified lead: £32 (down from £95, -66%). 27% consultation booking rate. 38 full implant consultations booked. £185K treatment value attributed (15 full-arch cases at £8K-12K each). 45% YoY clinic revenue growth.

    Key Takeaways

    Lessons From This Engagement

    Service mix matters more than total lead volume

    100 check-up leads at £95 each is worse than 20 implant leads at £150 each. Measure by service profitability, not total leads.

    Call tracking is essential for healthcare

    Breaking out implant calls from check-up calls revealed the previous strategy was 80% wrong. Call tracking revealed the problem; campaign restructure fixed it.

    Geography differs by service type

    Check-up seekers want proximity (5 miles). Implant patients travel 30 miles for a specialist. Geographic targeting must align with service type and patient journey.

    Before/after galleries drive conversion

    For implants, visuals are the sale. A 25-image gallery increased form completion 175%. Healthcare is unique — showcase your work.
