Orthodontics referral marketing
How orthodontic practices get more referrals.
Who refers to orthodontic practices
Orthodontics referrals come from a predictable set of providers. The practice that is known to these offices, easy to refer to and consistent about communicating back gets the majority of their orthodontic cases. The list for your specialty:
- general dentists
- pediatric dentists
- family dentists
- dental hygienists
- oral surgeons
- periodontists
- school nurses and pediatricians
Why orthodontic referrals go to a competitor
General dentists now offer clear aligners in house and refer out less than they did ten years ago. The comprehensive cases that still get referred go to the orthodontist the dentist knows personally. If you are not visiting those offices, your competitor's treatment coordinator is.
What a physician liaison does for a orthodontic practice
For an orthodontic practice, the liaison builds relationships with the front desk, the hygienists and the dentist. Hygienists spot crowding and bite problems first, so educating them on when to refer and making it simple to hand a patient your card is where most of the growth comes from.
How Doctor Referral Institute builds orthodontic referrals
We start with a map of every office in your market that should be sending you comprehensive adolescent treatment, adult orthodontics, phase one early treatment, surgical orthodontics and complex aligner cases. A referral specialist builds the visit plan and a local rep works it every week, in person. Every visit is logged and you receive a weekly report: offices visited, who was seen, what was said and which sources have started referring. Exclusivity is one orthodontic practice per market, so every relationship built in your area is built for you.

Questions about orthodontic referrals
How do orthodontists get more referrals from general dentists?
By being present. Regular office visits, lunch and learns for hygienists, same week consults for the dentist's patients, and a thank you and progress update after every referral. We run that program for you with a local rep.
Do pediatric dentists refer to orthodontists?
Pediatric dentists are often the single best referral source for an orthodontic practice. They see children at the right age for phase one evaluation and refer in volume once they trust an office.
What about dentists who do aligners themselves?
Most still refer the cases they do not want: surgical, complex, phase one and anything with a difficult bite. Our reps help dentists define which cases to send you.
Is there exclusivity for orthodontists?
Yes. One orthodontic practice per market.
