1-800-DENTIST® Holds Toothbrushing Tricks Contest
Los Angeles, CA, May 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- 1-800-DENTIST®, the nation’s leading free dentist referral service, will hold a “Toothbrushing Tricks” contest through the month of May. Parents across the U.S. are invited to share the strategies they use to make toothbrushing fun for their kids. Submissions should be e-mailed to contest@1800dentist.com by May 31, 2009. First place winners will receive a Sonicare® toothbrush, 2nd place winners a dental care toolkit and 3rd place winners a 1-800-DENTIST® hat. Winners will be announced June 15, 2009 on 1800dentist.com/contest. Participation is free.
“Parents are famous for coming up with creative ways to help their kids cultivate good habits, and we think that brushing your teeth is one of the most important habits to nurture,” said CEO Fred Joyal. “This contest is a great way for parents to share those ‘tricks’ -- and get treats in return.”
The toothbrushing contest coincides with the launch of Live Chat on 1800dentist.com. Live Chat allows consumers to communicate online with operators in real time, 24 hours a day. With Live Chat, consumers now have three free options to find a dentist through 1-800-DENTIST®, and get their questions answered quickly. Live Chat operators can even point consumers to helpful dental articles and videos available on 1800dentist.com, with topics ranging from wisdom teeth extractions and dental implants to TMJ and denture care. Live Chat is an ideal tool for consumers with dental emergencies.
“Live Chat is the perfect complement to our suite of customer service options,” said President Larry Twersky. “Thousands of consumers visit our site every day in search of a dentist or reliable dental information. Live Chat makes our visitors’ experience faster, easier and more convenient.”
1-800-DENTIST® recently launched other robust website upgrades. Finding a dentist is now possible in three easy steps – search, select and call. New features such as “Click to Talk” and “Get More Help” allow consumers to request a callback from operators and submit questions online.
1-800-DENTIST’s existing content was also restructured for quick access to hundreds of consumer dental articles geared towards patients of all ages. “Just for Seniors,” “Lifestyle Concerns & Medical Conditions,” “At-Home Dental Tips” and “Dental Visit Advice” are some of the site’s new categories. In the “Parents and Kids” section, parents can find games and activities to enjoy after entering our “Toothbrushing Tricks” contest.
