Website Redesign Report

10 Improvements We Made to Your Website

Plain English explanations for each upgrade — what was wrong, and what you gain for your practice.

Your logo and images are from 2016

The Problem: Your website was using images uploaded 10 years ago. When people visit your site, outdated visuals send the message that you may no longer be open or up-to-date.

What You Gain: Fresh, professional visuals instantly build trust with potential patients searching online.

Your Instagram button goes nowhere

The Problem: Your Instagram icon was broken — it didn't link anywhere. Visitors trying to connect with you hit a dead end, which looks unprofessional.

What You Gain: A working social presence shows an active, trustworthy practice.

Your office hours are hard to find

The Problem: Your hours (Mon–Thu 7am–2pm, Fri 7am–1pm) were buried in a small header bar. Most visitors missed it.

What You Gain: Prominently displayed hours reduce phone calls asking "are you open?" and help patients decide to book right then.

No clear 'Book Now' button at the top

The Problem: Patients had to scroll or hunt to find how to make an appointment. Every second of confusion equals a lost patient.

What You Gain: A prominent "Book Appointment" button at the top of the page can double your online leads.

Your Discount Dental Plan isn't featured

The Problem: You have an in-house savings plan that patients without insurance would love — but it was hidden in a dropdown menu.

What You Gain: Featuring this plan prominently attracts uninsured patients who are currently going elsewhere.

No 'Special Needs' spotlight

The Problem: You offer hospital dentistry and special needs care — that's rare and valuable — but it was buried in a submenu.

What You Gain: Families with special needs actively search for this. A dedicated section could bring in patients no one else serves.

No patient reviews shown prominently

The Problem: The testimonials page existed but reviews weren't shown on the homepage. 93% of patients read reviews before choosing a dentist.

What You Gain: Displaying Google reviews on your homepage builds instant credibility.

Mobile visitors see a cluttered menu

The Problem: Your navigation had multiple dropdown levels that are hard to use on a phone. Over 60% of people search dentists on mobile.

What You Gain: A clean mobile experience keeps potential patients on your site instead of bouncing to a competitor.

Sedation Dentistry isn't front and center

The Problem: Sedation dentistry was listed multiple times in your menu, but it wasn't featured where anxious patients could see it immediately.

What You Gain: Dental anxiety is extremely common. Patients who need sedation will specifically look for this — and book when they see it.

Copyright updated to 2026

The Problem: Old copyright years on dental websites make patients wonder if the business is still active.

What You Gain: Simple fix, big credibility boost — the site looks current and maintained.
