Google’s new AI Performance Report in Search Console shows dental practices whether their pages are appearing in AI Overviews and AI Mode — here’s what it means and what to do next.
Google Updates Search Console for AI Search Visibility
On June 3rd, Google launched a new report inside Google Search Console that dental practices should know about. For the first time, site owners can see exactly how often their pages are appearing inside AI Overviews and AI Mode — the AI-powered features that are now answering patient searches before they ever scroll to a traditional result. As Dan explains in this week’s Monday Marketing Rundown, this is the first time practices have had any visibility into whether Google’s AI is surfacing their content or ignoring it entirely — and the data is going to be eye-opening for most.
The report is rolling out in phases, so not every Search Console account will have access right away. But whether you can see your numbers today or not, Dan walks through exactly what to look for, what low AI impressions signal about your practice’s digital presence, and why opting out of AI features — which Google now allows — would be a significant mistake for most practices.
Watch this week’s episode to find out how to locate the new report in your Search Console account, what your AI impression data actually means, and the specific steps Dan recommends taking right now to strengthen your practice’s AI visibility in the search results that are rapidly becoming the new front door for patient acquisition.
