Quick Answer: The best TikTok dentist accounts to follow mix education with personality. @dentistsinging does humor, @thebentist does trend-driven skits, @jasminerdh gives quick hygiene tips, @thebracesguy answers braces questions, and pediatric creators like @socopdo and @themamadentist speak straight to parents. Study how they hook viewers fast, answer one question per video and feature their team. Then borrow the format, not the content.
The fastest way to get better at TikTok is to watch the dentists already doing it well. Each account below teaches a format your practice can copy, from quick hygiene tips to smile reveals to parent-friendly pediatric videos. And yes, TikTok is still worth your time in the US: its US operations moved into a new, majority American-owned joint venture in January 2026 instead of being banned.
TikTok is one piece of a bigger plan. If you’re building out your whole video strategy, start with our guide to video marketing for dentists.

@dentistsinging Brush Your Teeth!!

Which orthodontists are worth following on TikTok?
The Braces Guy and Advanced Orthodontics are two of the best orthodontic accounts on TikTok, because they answer the exact questions braces patients ask. Orthodontic patients are often teens, so these accounts show how to talk to them directly while still keeping parents in the loop.

(About 16K followers as of September 2026.)
13. Palm Valley Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics (@pediatric.dentist.ortho): No Topic Is Too Basic
@pediatric.dentist.ortho Pediatric Dentist vs. General Dentist: What's the Difference? What makes a pediatric dentist different from a general dentist? After dental school, pediatric dentists complete additional specialty training focused specifically on caring for infants, children, and adolescents. That training includes understanding children's growth and development, behavior management, caring for very young patients, recognizing concerns such as tongue and lip ties, and providing appropriate sedation when indicated. Kids aren't simply smaller adults. Their teeth, development, behavior, and dental needs are different, and pediatric dentistry is designed around exactly that. 🤍 At Palm Valley Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, our goal is to give your child specialized care while making every visit feel safe, comfortable, and positive.
♬ original sound - Pediatric Dentist in Arizona
This Arizona practice covers the basics with simple education videos on hygiene, pacifier use and braces. Their audience is smaller, but they post consistently.

@dr.johnyoo The look of betrayal at the end 😂🥲 even cuter in real life! @Baby Lily 🎈#pediatricdentistry #babytok #fyp ♬ Just the Two of Us - Grover Washington, Jr.

She also offers a course on building healthy toothbrushing habits for babies and toddlers, and her videos support it without a hard sell. What to copy: most of your TikTok viewers will never visit your office, so give them something useful anyway, like a guide, course or product. (About 1.6K followers as of September 2026.)
16. SOCO Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, Dr. Ashley (@socopdo): Bust Myths With Green Screen and Stitch
@socopdo Braces can straighten teeth beautifully… but they don’t protect enamel from poor brushing during treatment. These white spot lesion are scars from plaque sitting too long on the teeth. The good news? We now have a solution. This patient had ICON treatment, and 6 months later we were able to noticeably blend and reduce the appearance of the lesions by about 50%. Not perfect — but a huge improvement. ✨ Moral of the story: brushing during braces matters just as much as the braces themselves.

Dr. Ashley Kisling of Orange County, California, busts myths, responds to viral dental videos, answers first-consultation questions and gives office tours. Her videos are quick and snappy. What to copy: use Green Screen to put a photo or clip behind you while you explain it, or Stitch a viral video and add your expert take. (About 347K followers as of September 2026.)
What can your practice copy from these TikTok dentists?
Most successful dental TikToks share the same habits: they answer one question at a time, show real people and post on a steady schedule. Here’s what to borrow from the accounts above. For a full list of formats, see our dental TikTok ideas.
- Batch your videos. Keep a running topic list and record several videos on the same day.
- Answer one question per video. Myth-busting and “what’s the point of X?” formats work especially well.
- Use Green Screen and Stitch. React to viral dental videos or photos and add your expert take.
- Compare two products. Toothbrushes, toothpastes, floss vs. flossers. Bonus points for trying them on yourself.
- Let the team and patients carry some videos. The dentist doesn’t have to be on camera every time.
- Film real, candid moments. Happy patients and team laughs build more trust than procedure footage alone.
- Mix trends with original content. Trends fade fast, so don’t rely on them alone.
- Get written consent first. Anyone who appears on camera, and any patient’s face or dental images, needs signed HIPAA authorization before you post. Use a social media consent form, and get a parent’s or guardian’s signature for minors.
Need a starting point? These five ideas come straight from the pediatric dentists above:
- React to a wild dental video or viral dentistry photo
- Bust a common hygiene myth
- Share your favorite at-home tools (and what to avoid)
- Tour the office or introduce the team
- Dance to a trending sound in the office (the worse the dancing, the better)

How do you start a TikTok for your dental practice?
Start by setting up a business account, picking one or two video formats you can repeat, and posting consistently for at least a few months. Here’s a simple plan:
- Set up and optimize your profile. Use your practice name, a clear photo and a link to your booking page. Our guide to TikTok for dentists covers profile setup and TikTok SEO.
- Pick two or three accounts from this list to study. Note their hooks, video length and how often they post.
- Plan and batch your first 10 videos. TikTok’s AI tools can help with scripts and editing. Short on time? Start with these short-form AI dental videos you can share today.
- Post everywhere. Share each video to Instagram Reels, Facebook and YouTube Shorts too. See our tips on Instagram marketing for dentists and these dental Facebook post ideas.
- Boost only your best performers. Once a video does well on its own, a small budget can reach more local patients. Here’s how to advertise on TikTok.
- Track results. Ask new patients how they found you, and track each platform separately. Here’s how to measure real dental social media ROI.
TikTok works best as part of a bigger dental social media strategy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should dentists be on TikTok in 2026?
Yes, if your practice can post consistently. TikTok still operates in the US after its US business moved into a new, majority American-owned joint venture in January 2026. It’s a strong way to reach teens, young adults and parents. Start with our guide to TikTok for dentists for setup and search tips.
Who is the most famous dentist on TikTok?
The Bentist (@thebentist) is one of the most famous dentists on TikTok, with about 16 million followers as of September 2026. He’s known for silly jokes, stories, trend-driven skits and duets with other dental creators. The Braces Guy (about 4.5 million) and Dr. Tristan Peh (about 3.7 million) are close behind.
Can dentists post patients on TikTok?
Only with the patient’s signed HIPAA authorization, or a parent’s or guardian’s for minors. A verbal “sure” isn’t enough, so keep the signed form on file. Never show names, chart details or anything else that identifies a patient without that consent. Our social media consent form makes it easy.
What should a pediatric dentist post on TikTok?
Pediatric dentists should post videos that help parents and make kids excited to visit. Parent tips, first-visit walkthroughs, myth-busting, office tours and fun team videos all work well. Keep each video focused on one idea. See the pediatric dentists above for real examples you can borrow.
How often should a dental practice post on TikTok?
For most practices, two to four TikToks a week is a realistic goal. Consistency matters more than volume: one video every week, all year, beats ten videos in January and nothing after. Batch-filming several videos in one sitting makes a steady schedule much easier to keep.
Want help planning your practice’s TikToks?
You don’t have to figure out TikTok alone. Our team can plan your videos, write captions and post for you, so your practice shows up consistently without adding to your team’s to-do list. Talk to our dental social media team.
