01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Dental Associates has a low Google Business Listing health score of 2.8 out of 10. The listing is claimed and includes the business name, trading status, phone number and full address, giving customers a basic way to find and contact the practice. The most important gaps are the missing website link and description, which limit the information available before customers call.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 2
    Description lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou have fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.

Your reviews

Dental Associates has a below average Google Business review health score of 3.3 out of 10. Its strongest result is a star rating among the highest in the local market, helping build confidence before customers read further. The main gaps are the absence of owner replies and a review count well below local expectations, which reduce visible credibility when customers compare practices.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Star ratingYour rating is among the highest in this market and it does its own selling - a customer sees it before they read anything else.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 2
    Review countYour review count sits well below what buyers here are used to seeing, which means a customer comparing options side by side reads you as the less proven choice.
  • 3
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit behind half the businesses here, so a customer weighing three listings has slightly less reason to trust yours.

Your Facebook page

Dental Associates has no Facebook page that can be found, leaving customers without a place to check the practice is real, see recent work, or send a message. That is unusual in this market: 150 of 277 businesses have a page that can be found. Creating a clear business page, or making an existing one findable, would close that gap.

Your hours against demand

Dental Associates covers 57% of the week's customer traffic, with some open hours in quiet times and demand pointing to a wider trading pattern. On Friday from 9am to 5pm, customers find the practice closed while the market is busy. Dental Associates should open Friday from 10am to 2pm so customers can arrive for appointments during the busiest part of that gap.
