A trip to the dentist can be stressful. It\’92s smart for you to be doing all you can to try to ease that stress of your patients\’97new and existing. One way to help them feel comfortable is by sharing free items. Remember visiting the dentist as a child and leaving happily with your shiny new free toothbrush? The idea of free swag appeals to adults just the same! Rewarding them for their \’93good behavior\’94 with a little memento or two to remember you by can do the trick.
Providing your patients with a goodie bag at the end of each visit shows your appreciation and furthers the conversation of preventative dental hygiene. It\’92s also the perfect way to advertise. Your parting gifts can have your name, office and number so they have a constant reminder of your practice whenever they go to use them after their appointment.
The first step to producing the best goodie bag for your dental office is to decide on the message you want to convey. Will your goodie bags be providing oral health-care products? Is it used as a marketing tool to promote your practice? Be careful, creative and thoughtful when putting together your customized good bag.
Here are 16 goodie bag ideas that you can give to your patients during a visit to your dental practice.

Using these goodie bag ideas for your dental practice will demonstrate compassion, willingness to help and thoughtfulness for their oral health and apprehensiveness of visiting in the first place. And who doesn\’92t like to get presents? Your dental patient will walk out of your office with a bag full of free goodies and another reason to be pleased with the service they received. That is never a bad thing.
Dental practices thrive by obtaining new patients and retaining current patients. Because of this, it\’92s critical to make the patient experience a good and memorable one.
