Integrated Dental Marketing (IDM) was established in 2001 with the sole purpose of assisting the dental profession with design and marketing solutions.

Integrated Dental Marketing was launched in 2001 by Founder and Managing Director Carl Burroughs.

Carl had already established a successful agency, which was focused on helping the SME market utilise cost-effective marketing to build their businesses. Through this agency he took on a number of dental practice clients.

The deregulation of marketing around the dental profession had only happened a few years prior and Carl soon realised that dentists had no access to informed marketing advice specifically for their profession.

In the first few years, a great many hours where spent attending dental conferences and working very closely with a few dental practices to gain an in-depth insight into how best market a dental practice. This insight was also enhanced through Carl’s decision to initially only employ project managers from within the profession.

Over the next decade IDM went on to launch the fastest ever growing dental practice in Australia, introduce the first ever dedicated patient finance system, run a national dental TV campaign and help in the formation of a major dental group.

More importantly however, IDM stayed committed to helping individual dentists and practices and to build a reputation of always going the extra mile for clients – a trait of the business that is more evident today than ever.

IDM has firmly established itself as Australia’s number one dental marketing agency. It has helped hundreds of dental practices achieve their goals through well thought out, professional and cost-effective campaigns.

Carl and his team are constantly developing and testing new marketing strategies. This enables IDM to offer clients the latest marketing trends and innovations that deliver a distinct competitive advantage.

  • Dr jayson
    "I first started to use IDM in early 2017, initially to help with some Google Ads and Facebook Ads. Over the coming months, I realised that not only are they the experts in online marketing, but their knowledge of the dental sector is second to none. Fast forward to today and I really enjoy only dealing with just the one marketing provider in the knowledge that they always have my best interests at heart and I no longer have to worry about having a full diary. This allows me to concentrate on all the other aspects of running a multi-chair practice. I have no hesitation in recommending IDM to any practice owner who has a desire to expand."

  • "Joining IDM has been the cornerstone of my startup dental practice’s success. Nine months ago, as I was preparing to launch my new practice in Brisbane, I made the decision to enlist the expertise of IDM. From the outset, Carl’s profound understanding of the dental industry was evident. He generously offered invaluable insights and guidance even before I officially came on board. IDM showed a genuine commitment to my practice’s success by helping develop my branding, advertising, website, and design. Tony has been instrumental in implementing SEO strategies and online marketing techniques which has directly led to increased patient numbers. Allie has meticulously set up all my social media accounts with amazing engaging content. The success of my practice today is attributed to the strategic groundwork laid by IDM. By entrusting them with the advertising and marketing, I’ve been able to focus on providing high quality dental care to my patients. I recommend IDM to any dental practice looking for a professional and dedicated marketing team."

    "The team at IDM have helped me build two multi-million dollar practices over the past decade, and are now helping me navigate my way through the COVID-19 crisis. Whilst my inbox has been flooded with 100’s of emails from companies trying to sell me marketing during this crisis, the team at IDM simply bunkered down and provided me with all the resources and support I needed. Detailed reports on how to communicate with patients, messages of support and guidance to know what to work on at this time to come out of this stronger. They say you get to see the best and the worst of people in a crisis, well they don’t get any better than the team at IDM. If you want to work with a marketing and communication company that truly cares about the outcomes of their clients, I strongly recommend you talk to IDM – it has worked for me – Twice!"

    Carl Burroughs has a unique insight to developing the business model. I doubt there’s anyone is Australia, who can promote and expand a dental practice as well as him.
