[ WHAT WE DO ]

Four surfaces, all dental-specialist, run as engagements not templates.

ADA-compliant dental marketing

On-page, content, and technical SEO aligned with the provisions that govern dental advertising. Section 5.F.6 (websites and SEO, March 2023 Code). Section 5.F.1 (authorship disclosure on electronic communications). Section 5.F.2 (false-or-misleading definitions including unjustified-expectation claims). Section 5.I.1 (NCRDSCB non-recognition disclaimer requirement). Section 4.E.1 (split-fee marketing prohibition).

DSO-scale SEO + per-location landing pages

Organization → subOrganization → Dentist schema hierarchy across the portfolio. Per-location landing pages that achieve actual uniqueness — staff bios, neighborhood content, facility photography, localized service mix — rather than templated near-duplicates that get demoted. GBP architecture with the on-site lead dentist as designated owner per location.

Dental schema + GBP sub-categories

Dentist (subtype of MedicalBusiness under LocalBusiness) deployment with medicalSpecialty mapped to ADA-recognized specialties and availableService mapped to CDT codes — the ADA-owned, copyrighted, annually-updated procedure-code system — rather than invented marketing terminology. Primary GBP-category selection as a compliance boundary: misusing "Orthodontist" for a general dentist providing clear aligners exposes the listing to suspension via competitor spam reports.

AggregateRating + Reviews System compliance

Review-surfacing schema deployed under Google's Reviews System framework with dental-content awareness — testimonials surfaced inside Section 5's "average patient" rule, before/after-image disclaimers where required, AggregateRating wired to actual verifiable sources rather than fabricated counts. The reviews surface is where Section 5 and Google's spam policy intersect hardest; we handle both.

[ WHY BRIGHT ]

Specialist depth, not bundled-platform breadth.

ADA Section 5 literacy

Most dental-marketing agencies cite "ADA compliance" as a slogan. We cite the specific provision: 5.F.6 governs websites; 5.F.2 defines false-or-misleading; 5.I.1 mandates the NCRDSCB non-recognition disclaimer for general dentists announcing interest areas. Every advertising-rule claim on a Bright-built site cites the provision; substrate-grounded only, no invented ADA rules.

DSO operational depth

DSO SEO is not solo-practice SEO at higher volume. It's a different engagement: per-location entity uniqueness, schema hierarchy under Organization, GBP merge-protection across multi-practitioner facilities (substrate notes the algorithmic merge vulnerability at multi-specialty buildings), multi-state advertising-rule variance auditing. We engagement-shape by ICP segment — solo, group, DSO — not template across them.

State-board variation coverage

Patterson v. FTC (1985) struck down the ADA's pre-consent-decree advertising ban — dentists can advertise prices and services. The how is jurisdiction-specific: TX TSBDE, CA Dental Board, FL Board of Dentistry, NY State Board of Dentistry each layer distinct rules on advertised pricing, specialty announcements, implant marketing, and discount marketing. For multi-state DSOs the variation map is a primary differentiator; we maintain it.
