New Website Launches for Washington, DC Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics Practice

WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwire - May 24, 2012) - Pediatric dentist Dr. Joseph Lopez and Dr. Wayne Hickory, an orthodontist in Bethesda, of Bethesda Dental Specialties have announced the release of a new redesigned website for their practice with the goal of boosting online patient interaction and overall care. Featuring a comprehensive upgrade that includes video integration and a unique layout, Dr. Hickory says the new website offers his practice a chance to provide patients with a valuable resource in their search for the highest quality dental and orthodontic procedures. He says he is excited about the release and hopes it will further his ability to communicate with his patients about their needs and goals.

At their Bethesda pediatric dentistry and orthodontics practice, Drs. Hickory and Lopez offer a wide range of treatment options including regular cleanings and dental work for children as well as braces and clear aligners for patients of all ages. Dr. Lopez says as the world continues to progress farther into the digital age, he wants his practice to be able to satisfy patient demand in an efficient and effective way. He also says patients are now turning to social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter for patient reviews, frequently asked questions, and other medical information, a community he hopes the new website will be able to meet with enthusiasm and dedication.

Other features of the new website include a custom homepage with dynamic images and visual slides linking to in-depth procedure content. Each of the procedure pages also offers an informational video to help patients navigate the different types of available treatment. Dr. Hickory says the incorporation of drop-down tabs and a user-friendly layout was an intentional design to help make patient education accessible and enjoyable. Whether someone is looking for dental sealants for their kids or Invisalign® for themselves, he says he hopes the new website will also facilitate a more enhanced doctor-patient interaction.

Built in partnership with Rosemont Media, a San Diego-based dental website design firm, Drs. Hickory and Lopez say the Bethesda Dental Specialties website is fully optimized with advanced search engine tactics to increase visibility so patients can find the information they are looking for more easily. Drs. Hickory and Lopez also say they are looking forward to the opportunities now available thanks to the new site and hope it will further encourage their pursuit of the highest quality dental care for their patients.
