National Dental Holidays to Highlight at Your Practice

National Dental Holidays to Highlight at Your Practice

Sometimes, it can feel tricky to come up with enough content for use on social media and in
marketing efforts around a dental practice. Plus, it is always important to show appreciation to
your staff for the hard work they do day in and day out.

Yes, it is easy to celebrate major holidays, such as Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, Christmas
and New Year’s, and the like. However, it is also necessary to raise awareness of the practice of
dentistry, health awareness days, and other “fun” dental holidays that can lend a bit of
personality to your in-practice and online marketing efforts.

In this new blog, LenDRgroup Consulting will outline a month-by-month list of dental holidays
your practice can celebrate this year… and every year!
