Specific answer

AI citation audit for dentists: who gets named in your city

How to measure which dentists ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini name for local patient-intent prompts using dated sampled API answers.

A dental AI citation audit asks the same local patient questions several times across the platform APIs and records which practices appear. The report should separate cosmetic, general, emergency, pediatric, implant, and insurance-related prompts because each question can draw from a different source set. Your result is a dated mention rate, not a claim that one answer is permanent.

A patient may ask for a cosmetic dentist in a city, a dentist who accepts a named plan, or an emergency appointment nearby. Those are different retrieval problems. A practice with one generic homepage can appear differently from a practice with clear service and location pages, consistent directory listings, and citations on sources the platform uses for that exact question.

What the record changes

The audit keeps the prompt text, platform, date, run count, named practices, and cited URLs. It then checks whether the practice appears under one name, address, and phone number on the cited sources. A dental practice should also have counsel or its compliance professional review any site changes under the applicable state dental-board and advertising rules.

  • The research found a cosmetic-dentist AI visibility audit priced at $497 with a five-to-seven-business-day delivery window and a separate dental audit at $27.
  • The full local report samples prompts because AI answers change from run to run and API output can differ from a consumer app session.
  • No patient data is needed. The input is the service, place, and public practice identity.

How to use this answer

An AI citation check defines buyer-intent prompts for one service and place, runs each prompt several times through the platforms' APIs, and records every named practice and cited source. The report uses mention and citation rates over a stated run count because a single answer can change on the next run. Entity checks then compare the practice's name, address, phone, service, and location pages across the sources that appeared.

  1. Choose the service, city, and buyer question before naming the practice you want to measure.
  2. Run each prompt several times on each API, save the verbatim dated answers, and calculate rates from the full run set.
  3. Inspect the cited directories, articles, and local pages for entity consistency, then prioritize fixes on surfaces the practice controls.

Where the service stops

Reality Contact, LLC runs prompts through platform APIs and reports dated sampled answers. API output is a proxy for consumer-app output and can differ from it. We report who appears and which sources the answer cites. We do not get a practice named, cited, ranked, or recommended, and we do not rate competitors. This is not legal advice or financial advice, and it is not advertising-compliance advice.
