How do dental clinics reactivate inactive patients in Canada?

Patient reactivation is one of the highest-ROI activities for Canadian dental clinics. Patients who haven't visited in 6+ months respond well to personalized SMS messages: "Hi [Name], it's been a while since your last visit at [Clinic]. We have openings this month — would you like to book?" Timing matters: Tuesday-Thursday between 10am-2pm consistently generates the highest response rates. A typical reactivation campaign recovers 5-12% of lapsed patients, representing significant revenue from your existing patient base.
