Invisalign & clear aligner marketing

Invisalign Marketing, Built to Turn Scans into Starts

Aligner patients are younger, more comparison-driven and more likely to find you on Instagram than on Google. They respond to a monthly price and a free scan, and they drop out fast when the follow-up is slow. We build aligner marketing around that journey instead of treating it like a general dentistry campaign.

The diagnosis

Four things that make aligner marketing different

01
Channel

Social does more of the work here

Aligner demand is created as much as it is captured. Many patients have thought about straightening their teeth for years and only act when an ad catches them at the right moment, which makes Meta and Instagram unusually effective.

We pair search for patients already looking with social creative that moves the ones who are still thinking about it.

02
Competition

GPs, orthodontists and direct-to-consumer brands

Aligners are offered by general dentists, orthodontists and online brands, often in the same neighbourhood. Patients compare on price, convenience and trust, in roughly that order.

Positioning has to answer why your practice, not just why aligners.

03
Offer

A free scan beats a discount

A free digital scan or smile preview gives patients a low-risk first step and gives the practice a real consult. It usually outperforms a price cut, which attracts shoppers who compare you with the cheapest option.

Monthly payment framing does the rest: people decide on the monthly figure, not the total.

04
Timing

Demand follows the calendar

Enquiries rise around the New Year, ahead of wedding season and when tax refunds land. Benefits resetting in January matter too, since many plans include some orthodontic coverage.

We pace budget against those windows rather than spending evenly through quiet months.

Treatment

What we actually build for aligner providers

Built on our dental Google Ads, dental SEO and Facebook Ads work, adapted for this kind of practice.

03

Fast follow-up

Questions

What aligner providers usually ask first

Still have one that isn't here? Ask it on the call — it's thirty minutes and there's no pitch deck.

Is Invisalign marketing better on Google or Facebook?

Both, for different patients. Google captures people already searching for aligners near them. Meta and Instagram reach people who want straighter teeth but have not started looking. Most practices do best running both with separate budgets.

Can we use the word Invisalign in our ads?

Providers generally can, within Align Technology's trademark guidelines. The rules depend on your provider status and how the name is used, so we check your specific situation before launching.

Why do our aligner leads not turn into starts?

The most common causes are slow follow-up, a price shown without a monthly option, and no clear next step after the consult. We look at the whole path from click to start, not just the ads.

Do you work with orthodontists as well as general dentists?

Yes. The strategy differs: orthodontists usually compete on expertise and outcomes, general dentists on convenience and an existing patient relationship.

We also build dental implant marketing, orthodontist marketing, periodontist marketing, DSO marketing, and run campaigns in 12 US markets.

Invisalign is a trademark of Align Technology, Inc. Dental Marketing Firm is not affiliated with Align Technology.

Contract terms

Month-to-month. Cancel any time.

No 6- or 12-month lock-in, no setup fee and no minimum ad spend. If the work stops producing booked patients, you should be free to leave. How our month-to-month terms work

Do you require a long-term contract?

No. Every engagement with The Dental Marketing Firm is month-to-month, and you can cancel at any time. We keep clients by producing booked patients, not by locking them into an agreement.

Is there a setup or onboarding fee?

No. There is no setup fee and no onboarding fee. You pay the monthly management fee, and ad spend goes directly to Google or Meta.

Is there a minimum ad spend?

There is no required minimum. To give campaigns enough data to work, we recommend starting at $3,000 or more a month on Google Ads and $1,500 or more a month on Meta.
