Get Your Practice Named When Patients Ask AI
Answer engine optimization (AEO) and generative engine optimization (GEO) for dental practices, so AI recommends your practice first. Included in every :Delmain SEO plan.
“They seem to really have their finger on the pulse of trending dental searches, as well as the integration of AI searches and its influence on website traffic.”

Step one:
Build the ground truth
Step two:
Make the site citable (GEO)
Step three:
Monitor the mention (AEO)
Attract more patients with :Delmain’s 3-step approach to AI search
Your practice already competes on Google. Now there’s competition inside the answer itself. We build the signals AI engines check so your name shows up when patients are searching.
1
Build the ground truth
AI engines don’t recommend practices they can’t verify. To get you noticed and trusted, we start with: Google Business Profile and Bing Places; structured data (LocalBusiness, MedicalBusiness, Dentist); patient reviews; NAP consistency (name, address, phone number); and localized service page content.
2
Make the site citable (GEO)
Just like humans, AI wants to understand and trust your content. We format your site into a credible source generative engines can parse and cite. This includes: clean data for technical readability; clear heading structure; content that leads with the answer; full clinical coverage on every service page.
3
Monitor the mention (AEO)
We can only optimize what we measure. So we build a set of high-intent prompts specific to your market, monitoring this list prompt by prompt. Is your practice name in the answer text? What share of answer placements do you hold versus local competitors? Is the phrasing around you positive, neutral, or negative? That’s the scoreboard for ongoing updates.

FAQ: Dental AEO & GEO Services
Are AEO and GEO extra costs on top of SEO?
No. GEO is included in the Growth plan and up, and AEO is included in the Accelerator plan. They are part of the same SEO investment options you are already looking at, not a separate line item.
What's the difference between GEO and AEO?
GEO is about helping AI engines parse, trust, and cite your whole website. AEO gets your practice named inside a specific answer. GEO is scored site-wide, while AEO is scored prompt by prompt against a defined set of high-intent questions for your market.
Does this replace my SEO?
No, and it can’t. Answer engines look up live local data (Google Business Profile, structured data, reviews, NAP consistency) before they generate anything. Traditional SEO builds that foundation. GEO and AEO sit on top of it.
Which AI engines do you track?
We monitor the answer surfaces patients actually use to find a dentist, including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Perplexity. The prompt set is built for your market rather than with a generic list.
How do I know it's working?
For GEO, we report citation count, on-page readability, content depth, and technical readability. For AEO, we report visibility (is your practice name in the answer?), share of voice against local competitors, and sentiment. These live in the same monthly report and dashboard as the rest of your SEO data.
How long does it take?
Same honest answer we give on SEO: results take time, and we require a 6-month retainer for new partners. Structural GEO work shows up in citations sooner than AEO placements do, because the prompt set has to be monitored across enough answers to mean anything.
Can you promise we'll be the answer?
No. The answer layer changes constantly. What we can do is build every signal AI engines check and show you, month over month, whether your name is appearing and how often.

AI visibility can’t be separated from SEO, so we offer both together.

Their expertise was a perfect fit for me in my dental startup. I get compliments all the time on our site, and more and more patients are scheduling directly through the site. I would recommend :Delmain to anyone looking to build a bigger presence online.
Dr. Jacob Perlow Perl Smile Co.
We own 3 dental practices. Just 3 months in and our new patient flow has increased from 40 to 50 new patients per month (per location) with the old company, to 70 to 86 new patients per month (per location). We believe this is just the beginning and can't wait to see what the next 3 months of working together will bring.

Their pricing is competitive and transparent and they are organized and communicative. The website they created for my dental practice is beautiful and they stayed true to my style and brand. The team is highly skilled and there is always a project manager that can be easily reached to address any concerns. I HIGHLY recommend!
Dr. Shri ChopraDental Design of Wheaton
We have been in business for 22 years and thought that we were doing okay without a huge internet presence but we understood that times have changed. :Delmain has been amazing to work with and the results have been unbelievable! I should have initiated our relationship long ago!
