Orthodontic clinics · Social media

Post what a parent or adult wants explained, inside the limits your council sets.

Social media marketing for an orthodontic clinic means posts and reels that explain treatment in plain words to the adult weighing aligners and the parent preparing a teenager. GullySales plans the topics, drafts the wording for the doctor to approve and tracks the enquiries that arrive.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

Orthodontic clinics: show a real physical business scene illustrating Adjustment visit diary. Book short recurring visits by chair and clinician, with the next interval set when the current visit closes.

What social media means

Social media is the ongoing posting your business does on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to stay visible to customers and prospects between purchases. GullySales plans a posting calendar, writes captions and designs the images so the page looks active and answers what a visitor would ask.

Last updated 18 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.

For orthodontic clinics

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Adults watch reels, parents watch the clinic's page”

    A working adult meets orthodontics on Instagram reels and short videos. A parent is more likely to open the clinic's profile after a dentist's advice. The two need different posts, not one feed trying to please both.

  • “Before-and-after pictures are the obvious post and the risky one”

    Social media rewards transformation images, but advertising rules for dentists restrict them, and consent matters. Check your own council or adviser before any such post, and build the feed on explanation instead.

  • “A teenager's own account is a channel of its own”

    Teenagers may see the clinic's posts before their parents do. Posts for a younger audience must still be worded for a parent to read over their shoulder, with no pressure on the child.

  • “Aligner humour and trends can mislead”

    A viral clip about straightening teeth at home can create expectations the doctor then spends the consultation correcting. A post that states what a specialist assessment involves is the more useful reply.

What we do

What we deliver for orthodontic clinics.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A topic list approved by the doctor

    Subjects such as how a first visit goes, what a retainer is for and what happens at an adjustment visit, each marked as approved before drafting.

    Result: A list of subjects the doctor has already cleared.

  2. Draft posts and reel scripts

    Short wording for posts and spoken scripts for reels, written in plain language and passed to the doctor for edits.

    Result: Drafts ready for the doctor's approval, without clinical claims.

  3. A consent and photograph rule

    A one-page rule on when a patient's image, voice or name may appear, requiring written consent and professional approval.

    Result: A written rule the desk can point to when someone asks.

  4. Comment and message handling

    Wording for replies to questions that arrive as comments or direct messages, moving any clinical question to a consultation.

    Result: Replies that stay polite and never give a diagnosis.

  5. Enquiries traced to posts

    A way of tagging booking requests that came from social media so the desk records them at the source.

    Result: A count of consultations that began on social media.

How the result is measured

  • Posts published
  • Engagement rate
  • Enquiries from social profiles

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the social media work runs

    Audit current presence

    We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.

  3. 3

    Build the content calendar

    A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.

  4. 4

    Implement and post

    Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiries alongside engagement and adjust the content mix based on what actually performs.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can we post patient photographs?
Only with written consent and only if your council's advertising rules permit it. Rules differ by profession and state. Check with your own council or adviser. We do not suggest patient stories as a marketing tactic.
Which platform comes first?
Instagram suits adults looking at aligners, and Facebook or WhatsApp groups reach parents. The right mix depends on who your enquiries are, which your source records will show.
Do you run the account for us?
We draft and plan. The doctor approves every line before it goes out, because the clinic is responsible for what it publishes. Check the platform's current rules on promoting health services.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
