What we track on Facebook and Instagram
Social is where practices show their hand: the offers they push, the launches they announce, and the ads they pay to put in front of your patients. DentAlert follows the practices you picked on Facebook and Instagram every week and pulls out what actually matters, so you see their moves without scrolling the feeds yourself.
Promotions and offers
When a practice posts a deal, a discount, or a limited-time offer, it is competing for the same patients you are. We surface the promotions the practices near you push on Facebook and Instagram, so you can match or counter them in time.
New launches
A new treatment, a new hygienist, a Saturday clinic: social is usually where a practice announces it first. We pick up the launches they post, so you hear about a new offer when it goes live, not weeks later.
Ads they are running
We show you which practices near you are actively running ads on Facebook and Instagram right now. Knowing who is paying to reach your patients, and who is not, tells you where the pressure in your market is really coming from.
Follower movement
A following that climbs week after week is a sign a practice is gaining ground locally. We track each practice's follower count and how it moves, so you can see who is building an audience and who is losing one.
Job ads
Hiring posts say a lot. A practice advertising for an associate or hygienist usually means they are growing, opening longer, or stretched thin. We catch the roles they put out on social, so you read the ambition or the strain behind the hire.
Where they show up
Not every practice is on every platform. We show you which practices near you are active on Facebook, on Instagram, or on both, so you know where they are reaching patients and where there is room for you.
Three steps to your first report.
Find your business.
Enter your ZIP code and practice name, and we pull your profile straight from Google Maps. It takes a few seconds, with no long forms and no account to set up first. If patients can find you, we can find you too.
Choose who to watch.
We show you the other practices nearby, and you pick the ones you actually compete with. There is no algorithm guessing on your behalf. You know your street better than any tool does, so you start with a few names and adjust the list whenever you like as your competition changes.
Get your weekly email.
Your first 30 days are free, so you see the value before you pay anything. Every week a short email lands with every move your competitors made, across their Google profile, website, social, and reviews. It takes a minute to read, with the full report attached whenever you want more detail.
