Negative keywords for dentists
Dental clinics burn budget on three crowds: people looking for dental jobs and hygienist programs, people trying to fix a tooth at home, and pet owners. This list blocks all three before they click.
Updated
Before you paste: what NOT to block
High-intent dental queries often contain words that look blockable. Keep these out of your negative list:
- emergency dentist
- dentist near me cost
- dental implants price
- teeth whitening cost
- dentist that takes my insurance
Every list on this page is a starting point, not a decree. Scan it against your own offer before applying — one business's junk click is another's best lead.

View listFrequently asked questions
Should a dentist block "cost" and "price" queries?
No. "Dental implants cost" and "root canal price" are bottom-of-funnel patients comparing clinics — among the highest-converting queries dental accounts see. Block career, DIY and home-remedy traffic instead; keep every price-shopper.
Why are pet-dental terms on this list?
Broad and phrase match happily pair "teeth cleaning" with "dog teeth cleaning". Unless you treat dogs, those clicks are pure waste — and they are common enough that most dental accounts see them within a month.
These are generic industry negatives - safe in most accounts of this kind, but not tuned to yours. Inside Keyword Ninja, the Smart Blocklist cross-checks this exact catalog against your real search terms and shows the wasted spend before you block a single word.
