Dentists Using Facebook To Communicate With Patients

Published:June 25th, 2010

Dentists can use Facebook to enhance communication with their patients. Software applications can take care of sending messages to patients to their cell phones, email account or pager.

Dentists are enhancing the methods they use to communicate with their patients. Dr. James G. Diette, in Fairfield County, CT is using social media such as Facebook and software designed to text message appointment reminders, alerts and other types of messages to stay in touch with his patients. Patients can get more information, offer feedback and receive time sensitive news about their needs.

Such a Facebook page can use before-and-after photos, news and information about the events taking place at the dentist’s practice or in a wider area. Procedures such as teeth whitening or porcelain dental veneers can be presented on such a page. Patients can interact with one another using such Facebook pages and find out more on various oral care topics.

The message system can also deliver important information to the patients’ cell phone, email account or pager. With such technology at your fingertips you will not have to worry about being late for an appointment or skipping important information about the health and beauty of your smile.
