LOS ANGELES, CA, USA: The man who made it easy for large numbers of Americans to connect with a dentist is expanding to the online arena. Fred Joyal, CEO and co-founder of 1-800-DENTIST, has launched a new consumer dental blog. The blog is designed to shed light on the rapidly changing dental industry and share vital information about oral health with the public on a day-to-day basis.
Joyal founded 1-800-DENTIST in 1986 to provide a consistent flow of screened patients to member dentists while encouraging millions of consumers to visit the dentist on a regular basis. He has written, produced or appeared in over 200 television and radio commercials, which air more than 5,000 times a month on major networks nationwide.
With over 23 years of experience helping consumers find the right dentist, Joyal shares his unique knowledge, personal stories, facts and insights about dentistry. His blog — dentistlove.com — covers a wide range of topics, from the impact of oral piercings to a true story about how his wife called 1‑800‑DENTIST during an out-of-town emergency.
“Dentistry is changing every day and blogging gives me the opportunity to communicate these changes to the public immediately,” Joyal said. “I encourage dentists and consumers to read my blog and share their own personal stories, advice and tips.”
Joyal speaks regularly about patient loyalty, dentistry as a retail service business, practice marketing, new patient acquisition and practice branding. He also sits on the board of The Children’s Dental Center, a non-profit, state-of-the-art, comprehensive oral health care and education center in Inglewood, CA, USA.
Founded in Los Angeles in 1986, 1-800-DENTIST is a free resource for consumers in search of a dentist. Offering both online and on-the-phone services 24 hours a day, 1-800-DENTIST has matched more than 6 million Americans with independent dentists. For more information, visit www.1800dentist.com.
