In today's digital age, having a strong social media presence is crucial for any orthodontics practice looking to expand its reach, attract new patients, and build trust with the community. Grin offers powerful tools to help even the least experienced social media users effectively promote their practice.
Before/After images of treatment

This feature lets you share impressive before-and-after images of successful treatments with your social media audience.
Before-and-after images have a powerful visual impact and can immediately attract attention on social media platforms. It can help you share your expertise with the world, allowing your patients to share their success with other people and increasing your reach as well.
How does it work?
- Go to the patient timeline, find the latest scan (or any other scan that you want to set as the “after” scan), and next to the scan you will see the “Share Progress” button.
- Clicking on the “Share Progress” button will generate a Before-After image.
- You can send the Before-After image directly to the patient chat (and add a personal message). Make sure to ask your patients to tag the practice if they share it online.
- The Before-After asset is formatted for easy sharing on Instagram stories and other social media channels. Simply download the image and share it via your preferred social media method. Don't forget to tag @get-grin when you share the Before-After and spread the word!
