KickStart Dental Marketing has been working exclusively in dentistry since 2009, catering to independent dental and orthodontic practices, specialists, and multi-location groups across the US and Canada. Its core services include: 
  • Dental SEO, Google Maps optimization, and AI search visibility 
  • Google, Bing, and Meta ads, including Local Services Ads 
  • Dental website design, hosting, and maintenance 
  • Front desk training, AI call scoring, and an AI receptionist 
  • Online booking, patient reactivation, reviews, and referral campaigns 
  • DentalVoice social content and Dental IQ ROI tracking 
KickStart looks beyond lead generation to what happens after the phone rings. It scores every new-patient call with AI and coaches staff on the calls that didn't book. It also limits itself to one client per market, so its work never helps a nearby competitor. 

The dental marketing agency boasts a 96% client retention rate after having served more than 700 practices. Notable clients include Aurora Family Dentistry, Midtown Dental, and Advanced Endodontics of Buffalo, to name a few.  

Founder Chris Pistorius has appeared on the DentalTown Podcast and The Chris Voss Show.

Thompson Family Dental's Review Sourced from Google
If I could give Jenn Heusner more than five stars, I absolutely would.After nearly 20 years in my industry, I made the exciting (and intimidating!) decision to branch out and start my own business. From day one, Jenn was there for every step of the journey. She didn’t just build a website – she helped create my brand from the ground up. She guided me through choosing a logo, setting up my professional email, and making sure every detail reflected who I am and the experience I want my clients to have.The website she designed from scratch is nothing short of extraordinary. It’s beautiful, intuitive, professionally branded, responsive on every device, and thoughtfully designed with seamless navigation and a user-friendly experience. Jenn clearly understands modern web design, visual storytelling, search engine optimization.(SEO), And the technical details that make a website, not only look amazing but perform beautifully.Beyond her incredible talents, Jenn is one of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. She is patient, encouraging, endlessly creative, and remarkably intelligent. She has an amazing ability to take a vision that’s only in your head and transform it into something even better than you imagined.Working with Jenn is the best decision I’ve made so far in my business. She made what could’ve been an overwhelming process feel exciting and enjoyable. I couldn’t be happier with the final result, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a truly gifted web designer and branding expert. Thank you, Jenn for helping bring my dream to life. You are simply the best! "

We recently worked with Kickstart Dental Marketing on a new website and it was a great experience. The process was organized, communication was clear and they took the time to understand our brand and business goals. Our new site has fast response time, looks professional and reflects our business. Within 90 days of our new website launch, we noticed an increase in new client activity. We highly recommend Chris and his team if your looking for a marketing partner. "

For roughly a year, Castle Rock Dental Health collaborated with Kickstart to enhance its online presence. The client noticed a significant review increase and has received numerous new patient leads. What stands out about the team is its quick response. The client can promptly contact dedicated team members via phone, email, or text. It's been very helpful with any issues the client had. It's reassuring to feel recognized as an individual rather than just another client the company caters to. "

We have been using Kickstart for several years, and we have seen such tremendous growth with their expertise and marketing management. Their customer service has been wonderful, and I never feel like we are just "one of many" customers. We just started a 2nd new office, and with their help, we have already seen a jump in our new patient leads, and better yet, those leads are actually turning into new patients! Results and great customer service. They deliver exactly what we are all looking for! "
