Dr. Darold Opp, founder of Advanced Family Dentistry and SmilePalooza! continues to seek out and advocate nontraditional marketing methods to help dentists grow their practices.

ABERDEEN, SD – October 21, 2014 – Dr. Darold Opp, DDS, founder of Advanced Family Dentistry and SmilePalooza!, recently posted a blog on his website entitled “Nontraditional Marketing Tip: Let Your Dental Practice Go To The Dogs!.” Dr. Opp is always looking to create or identify nontraditional marketing ideas for dental practices. As he states, “I am a huge proponent of marketing ideas that are out-of-the-box. So it’s no surprise that a recent story about a dentist who has a dog on staff in his practice caught my attention.”

Fear of dentists is so widespread that some people avoid getting the care and treatment they need even with advanced technology and widespread use of sedation. Trained therapy dogs are helping many people overcome their fear. And Dr. Opp is seizing the opportunity to encourage the idea, saying, “Having a trained therapy dog in the office could make a huge difference in your practice, in the same way that my SmilePalooza! event does.”
