# Who Google's AI Recommends for Dentists in Vancouver

Source: https://enginely.ai/reports/vancouver/dental-ai-visibility/

> A citation study of Google AI Overviews across 7 Metro Vancouver sub-markets, measuring which practices AI-generated answers name and cite. 70 practices, 226 citations, 21 queries, captured August 2, 2026.

A citation study of Google AI Overviews across seven Metro Vancouver sub-markets and three patient questions — implant cost, Invisalign cost, and which dentists accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan — measuring which practices AI-generated answers name and cite.

21 patient-intent queries. 226 citations captured. 70 Metro Vancouver practices named — and in four of the seven sub-markets, Google declined to generate an answer at all for the highest-intent question of the three.

## Headline finding

**Google refused to generate an answer at all for the Canadian Dental Care Plan question in four of seven sub-markets.** Where it did answer, 70 Metro Vancouver practices share the citations and 70% of them appear exactly once.

| Figure | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Metro Vancouver practices cited | 70 |
| Citations to local practices | 53% |
| Citations to practices outside the region | 8% |
| Queries returning an AI Overview | 17/21 |

## What did this study measure?

We ran 21 patient-intent dental queries through Google across seven Metro Vancouver sub-markets and recorded every source cited by the AI Overview each one returned — including the four queries where no AI Overview was returned at all.

- **17 of 21 queries** returned an AI Overview; all four exceptions were the Canadian Dental Care Plan question, in Burnaby, Surrey, North Vancouver and Coquitlam
- **226 citations captured**, de-duplicated so a practice cited twice in one answer counts once
- **53% pointed at local practice websites**, 30% at Google listings, 10% at third parties and 8% at practices outside the region
- **70 distinct Metro Vancouver practices** were named across the seven sub-markets
- **Abbotsford counted as outside the region** and named explicitly rather than folded into either group
- **Single point in time** — captured August 2, 2026, and generated answers vary between runs

_This measures Google AI Overviews only. It does not measure ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Copilot, which use different retrieval systems and require separate tracking._

## Findings

### Google will not answer the CDCP question in most of Metro Vancouver

Only 3 of 7 sub-markets returned an AI Overview for “which dentists accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan” — Burnaby, Surrey, North Vancouver and Coquitlam returned none at all. In Calgary the same question returned an AI Overview in all seven. Where Vancouver did answer, no listing and no out-of-region practice was cited: it went 67% to local practices and the rest to a private information site.

### Vancouver defends its own market better than any city we have measured

Only 8% of citations go to practices outside Metro Vancouver, against 10% in Calgary and 13% in Ottawa. The intruders are real but few: London and Toronto, Ontario; Abbotsford; Montreal; and orthodontic groups in Massachusetts and California.

### The listing lever is a suburban lever

Vancouver, Richmond and North Vancouver returned zero Google Business Profile citations between them. Surrey, Coquitlam and Langley returned 62. The same investment in a Google Business Profile is worth nothing in the core and a great deal across the Fraser.

### No practice owns more than one question

Not one of the 70 cited practices appears across all three patient questions, and 49 of them (70%) appear exactly once. The top ten hold 40% of local citations and the most-cited practice in the region has just 10.

## One Market on Paper, Three Markets in Practice

Each question is answered from a different kind of page, and each has a different competitor taking the gap. The CDCP question is the outlier — not because local practices lose it, but because Google mostly declines to answer it.

_Share of citations going to a Metro Vancouver practice's own website_

| Topic | Queries | Citations | Local share | Most cited | Note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| CDCP coverage | 3 | 24 | 67% | smilevancouver.ca (1), aquabluedental.com (1), altadental.ca (1) | Answered in only three of seven sub-markets. Where it was answered, no listing and no out-of-region practice was cited at all — the remaining third went to a private information site that is not the government. |
| Invisalign cost | 7 | 83 | 54% | parksidedentalgroup.ca (5), radiantsmilesvancouver.ca (4), hemlockdentalclinic.com (4) | 30% of this question goes to Google listings and 10% to practices outside the region, including two American orthodontic groups. |
| Implant cost | 7 | 119 | 49% | appledentalimplantcentre.com (6), willowdentalcarevancouver.com (6), parksidedentalgroup.ca (5) | The most-cited question and the most contested: 36% of it is Google listings, which is where the suburban sub-markets do their damage. |

_Based on 226 citations across 17 AI Overviews, captured August 2, 2026. The four queries that returned no AI Overview contribute no citations and are reported in the sub-market table below._

## 10 Practices, 17 Citations, 8% of the Market

Every domain below was opened individually and its published street address recorded. None has a location in Metro Vancouver. redhousedental.ca is the one to look at twice: it is in Richmond Hill, Ontario — not Richmond, British Columbia — and it was cited in a Metro Vancouver Invisalign answer. The two cities share a name and nothing else; a patient following that citation would be booking 3,300 km away.

| Practice domain | Verified location | Citations | Sub-markets | Cited for |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| appletreedental.ca | London, ON | 4 | 4 | Implant cost |
| downtowndentistry.com | Toronto, ON | 3 | 3 | Invisalign cost |
| medoradental.com | Abbotsford, BC — Fraser Valley, outside Metro Vancouver | 3 | 3 | Implant cost |
| class1ortho.com | Newton, Massachusetts (USA) | 1 | 1 | Invisalign cost |
| cliniquedentairecartier.com | Montréal, QC | 1 | 1 | Implant cost |
| redhousedental.ca | Richmond Hill, ON — not Richmond, BC | 1 | 1 | Invisalign cost |
| renovadental.ca | Stouffville, ON | 1 | 1 | Invisalign cost |

| smilecrafters.ca | Ancaster / Hamilton / Toronto, ON | 1 | 1 | Implant cost |
| wowsmiles.com | Monterey, California (USA) | 1 | 1 | Invisalign cost |

_This is the smallest out-of-region share of any market in the series. Vancouver's problem is not intrusion; it is that most of the field is cited once and then never again._

## Every Metro Vancouver Practice Cited, Ranked

All 70 practices cited across the 21 queries analysed, ranked by how many generated answers cited the practice's own website. The most-cited practice in the entire region holds 10 of 119 local citations, and not one practice answers all three questions.

_Bar length is scaled to the highest citation count in the study. Repeat citations of the same domain within a single answer are counted once. Two domains belonging to the Smile Well Dental group were merged. Captured August 2, 2026._

## Read the Listing Column Twice

Vancouver, Richmond and North Vancouver returned zero listing citations between them; Surrey, Coquitlam and Langley returned 62. The AI Overview column is the other one to read: four of the seven sub-markets are missing an answer to the Canadian Dental Care Plan question entirely.

| Sub-market | AI Overviews | Local citations | Out of region | Listing citations | Distinct practices |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Vancouver | 3/3 | 14 | 2 | 0 | 14 |
| Burnaby | 2/3 | 16 | 3 | 6 | 13 |
| Richmond | 3/3 | 23 | 2 | 0 | 20 |
| Surrey | 2/3 | 19 | 3 | 20 | 17 |
| North Vancouver | 2/3 | 9 | 2 | 0 | 9 |
| Coquitlam | 2/3 | 16 | 3 | 22 | 13 |
| Langley | 3/3 | 22 | 2 | 20 | 18 |

_Sub-market labels follow Google's own location targeting rather than municipal boundaries._

## 68 Businesses Named Through a Google Listing

68 citations (30%) point to a Google Business Profile panel rather than a website. Every one of them was cited exactly once — Google is not returning to the same listings, it is filling the panel from whatever is nearby. Almost none of these businesses has a cited website anywhere in this study.

## The Third Parties, Including One That Is Not the Government

22 citations (10%) went to something that is not a dental practice. canadiangovernmentdentalplan.ca is not a government site — its own contact page states it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Government of Canada, and the postal address it publishes appears to be an unedited placeholder. It is being cited as a source on the Canadian Dental Care Plan question.

## Vancouver Against Calgary and Ottawa

All three studies ran the same instrument against the same three patient questions across seven sub-markets. Vancouver defends its own market best and answers fewest questions.

| Metro | Local practices cited | Local share | Out-of-region share | Listing share | AI Overviews |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Vancouver | 70 | 53% | 8% | 30% | 17/21 |
| Calgary | 79 | 53% | 10% | 26% | 20/21 |
| Ottawa | 52 | 48% | 13% | 31% | 19/21 |

## Method

1. Ran 21 patient-intent queries through Google with city-level location targeting across seven Metro Vancouver sub-markets: Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, North Vancouver, Coquitlam and Langley.
2. Tested each sub-market with the same three questions — implant cost, Invisalign cost and Canadian Dental Care Plan participation, so every area was asked identical questions.
3. Captured the complete search result page for each query, including the AI Overview block, its generated text, and every source it cited.
4. De-duplicated citations per answer, so a practice cited twice within a single AI Overview counts once.
5. Opened every practice domain whose name did not already contain an unambiguous Metro Vancouver place name and read its published street address from its own contact page; practices with a verified address outside the region are reported separately and that location is named.
6. Counted Google Business Profile panels separately as listing citations, and merged booking and group subdomains belonging to a practice already in the dataset into that practice.
7. Crawled on August 2, 2026 without personalisation, and recorded the crawl window so any figure can be re-checked against the day it was captured.

## Limitations

This is a single-point-in-time snapshot. AI Overviews are generated fresh per query and vary between runs, so exact citation lists will differ if re-run; trends require repeated sampling. Practice identification is by website domain, and where a group operates several sites each is counted separately unless the study states a merge.

Four of the 21 queries returned no AI Overview and contribute no citations; all four were the Canadian Dental Care Plan question, in Burnaby, Surrey, North Vancouver and Coquitlam. The absence of an AI Overview on a given day does not mean one will never appear. Only three patient questions were tested; cleanings, emergency care and cosmetic dentistry may behave differently. Sub-market labels follow Google's own location targeting rather than municipal boundaries.

AI Overviews reach the largest audience of any AI answer surface — no login, no app, shown to anyone searching Google — so this is the widest-reach measurement available. It is not the whole picture, and a business performing well here may perform differently elsewhere. Every figure comes from search results captured on the date stated and can be independently checked by running the same queries yourself.

## Where your practice sits

This report shows the market. It does not show your position in it — whether you are cited at all, on which questions, and whether Google is quoting your website or only your listing. That analysis is specific to your practice, and we produce it individually.

Vancouver is a well-defended market with a wide-open gap in the middle of it. Local practices hold 53% of citations and out-of-region practices barely register — but no practice answers more than one question, 49 of 70 are cited exactly once, and in four of seven sub-markets the highest-intent question of the three returns no AI answer at all. Google generates an AI Overview when it has enough usable source material and suppresses it when it does not; in those four sub-markets it currently has none.

The practice that publishes a clear, local page confirming it accepts the plan is not competing for a slot in an existing answer; it is supplying the material for an answer that does not yet exist. The work that follows is a fixed-price engagement: [the AI Visibility Accelerator](https://enginely.ai/services/ai-visibility-accelerator/dental/index.html.md). Thirteen weeks, a published price, and three separate measurements against these same queries after publication.

## Questions about this report

### Why does this report only cover Google AI Overviews?

Because an AI Overview is rendered inside a public search results page, it can be retrieved directly, for a specific city, at a specific moment — which is how every figure here was captured. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot do not publish their answers anywhere; those answers exist only when a user prompts the model, so measuring them requires running a fixed prompt set against each model repeatedly over time. That is a different instrument, and we report it separately rather than blending two methods into one number.

### Would you get the same numbers if you ran it again?

Not exactly. AI Overviews are generated fresh per query and vary between runs, so the exact citation list would differ. The structural findings — how concentrated the market is, which source types dominate, which questions are being lost — are stable enough to act on. Any specific practice's citation count is a snapshot, not a ranking position.

### Our practice is not in the table. What does that mean?

It means the practice was not cited in any of the 17 answers Google generated. With 70 practices cited and 49 of them appearing exactly once, the field here is unusually wide and unusually shallow — absence is common, and so is a single citation that does not repeat. It does not mean the practice is invisible in Google generally.

### What does it mean that Google returned no answer at all in four sub-markets?

Google generates an AI Overview when it has enough usable source material and suppresses it when it does not. For the Canadian Dental Care Plan question in Burnaby, Surrey, North Vancouver and Coquitlam, it currently has none. We report that as measured rather than treating it as a gap in the study — and we would note that an absent answer is a different commercial situation from a crowded one. It is unclaimed rather than contested.

### How were practices identified?

By website domain, exactly as it appeared in the AI Overview source list. Where a group operates several sites, each is counted separately unless this study states otherwise, because the citation was earned by a specific page on a specific domain.

### Can we be removed from the report?

Write to us and we will discuss it. The domains here appear because they were cited in publicly generated search results on the date stated, and the study would be less useful and less checkable without them — but we would rather have the conversation than not.

### Does being cited more often mean more customers?

We did not measure that, and we will not claim it. This study measures citations in generated answers, not clicks, calls or bookings. What it establishes is which practices are present in the answer someone reads before choosing — presence is a precondition for being chosen, not a substitute for it.

## Legal note

This report is provided for information. Practice and business names appear because they were cited in publicly generated search results on the date stated; inclusion or absence is not an assessment of clinical skill, care quality or standing. Nothing here is dental or medical advice, and nothing here describes Canadian Dental Care Plan eligibility — check that with the Government of Canada. Practice locations were read from each practice’s own published website on August 2, 2026 and may change. Figures describe what Google's systems returned on August 2, 2026 and may change.
