A new patient who receives nothing between booking and their first appointment arrives as a stranger — uncertain, potentially anxious, and with no particular reason to feel loyal to the practice. A new patient who receives a warm, well-timed sequence arrives feeling welcomed, prepared, and already connected. They are less likely to FTA, less anxious about the appointment, and significantly more likely to become a long-term patient.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px] whitespace-pre-wrap u-break-words\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eNew Patient Email Sequence 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e is a complete set of three ready-to-send email templates covering every touchpoint in the new patient journey — booking confirmation, pre-appointment reminder, and post-appointment follow-up. Replace the bracketed placeholders with your practice details, load into your practice management software, set the send triggers, and the sequence runs automatically for every new patient from that point forward.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px] whitespace-pre-wrap u-break-words\"\u003eThe sequence includes 3 emails and 3 SMS alternatives:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px] whitespace-pre-wrap u-break-words\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEmail 1 — Booking Confirmation\u003c\/strong\u003e Sent immediately at booking — the first impression, setting the tone for the relationship. Covers appointment details (date, time, dentist, full address), getting there and parking, what to bring (Medicare card, health fund card, current medications, previous dental records), health history form completion options, and a clear, friendly cancellation notice request. Professional, warm, and complete — everything a new patient needs in one email.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px] whitespace-pre-wrap u-break-words\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEmail 2 — Pre-Appointment Reminder\u003c\/strong\u003e Sent 48 hours before the appointment — reduces FTAs and prepares the patient for what to expect. Covers a clear description of what happens at a first appointment (medical and dental history, full examination, X-rays, findings discussion and treatment recommendations), practical reminders (arrive 5–10 minutes early, bring health fund card for on-the-spot HICAPS claiming), and a clear reschedule prompt. Patients who know what to expect arrive calmer and more engaged.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px] whitespace-pre-wrap u-break-words\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEmail 3 — Post-Appointment Follow-Up\u003c\/strong\u003e Sent 24–48 hours after the appointment — warm, genuine, and relationship-building. Includes three conditional versions: if a treatment plan was discussed (summary reference and follow-up call prompt), if recall was already booked (confirmation and reminder note), and if recall was not yet booked (gentle prompt to book ahead with a reason to act). Includes a Google review or feedback form invitation — with an AHPRA compliance reminder: do not use patient responses as testimonials in advertising without checking AHPRA advertising compliance guidelines.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px] whitespace-pre-wrap u-break-words\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSMS Versions\u003c\/strong\u003e Short-form SMS alternatives for all three touchpoints — booking confirmation, 48-hour reminder, and post-appointment message.
