About Us

Your Trusted Partner in Dental Marketing

At RAMP, our mission is simple – we're here to make you look good. Founded and led by a dentist for dentists, we specialize in building and growing dental practices through intelligent, cost-effective marketing campaigns.

We are not the largest dental marketing company, but we take pride in being the most knowledgeable and passionate about fulfilling the unique needs of dentists.

What We Believe

Great marketing is:
  • The art and science of targeted messaging done correctly.
  • Measurable results obtained through creative advertising.
  • Creating connections that portray your business in the best light.
  • A laser-focused approach on a narrow target, delivering the right message with the right frequency.
Great marketing is not:
  • Spray and pray tactics – taking chances without a plan.
  • A half-hearted endeavor lacking full commitment.
  • Seasonal – on-and-off like a hose.
  • Relying solely on one tactic to the exclusion of others.

Our History

RAMP was founded by Michael Silverman, DMD, a renowned lecturer, educator, author, and advocate for patient rights. A firm believer in the importance of lifelong learning, he established DOCS Education in 1999–an institution devoted to educating dentists on the safe implementation of sedation in their practices.

However, his dissatisfaction with marketing agencies lacking dental expertise led him to establish RAMP in 2001. Through RAMP, Dr. Silverman aimed to assist fellow dentists in effectively reaching their target audiences and achieving outstanding results. Together with his team of savvy marketing experts, RAMP has helped thousands of success-minded dentists achieve their growth goals over the last 20 years.
