A New Dental Practice Needed a Website Before Opening Day
7 Stone Dental is a new general dentistry office in Plano, Texas, led by
founder Dr. Maria Malachi, DMD. With an expected opening in early 2027, the
practice wanted to introduce itself to local families before welcoming its
first patients.
The project began without an existing practice website. Wowbix handled the
website plan, Figma designs, WordPress development, and first round of
SEO-focused content. The new site gives people a place to learn about the
dentist, read about services, and sign up for updates while the wider SEO
work continues.
The launch came before the grand opening.
7 Stone Dental now has a dedicated online home where people can explore the
practice and join its priority booking list.
The Starting Point
Seven Challenges We Had to Solve
Building a first website brings different challenges than redesigning an
older one. We needed to make important information easy to find without
relying on previous website content, patient reviews, or an active
appointment calendar.
1No Website to UpdateThere was no previous practice website, so the page plan had to be created
from scratch.
2No Website Search HistoryThe practice needed its first searchable website and a sensible local SEO
starting point.
3No Established Patient ReviewsThe site needed to build confidence through doctor details and helpful
information.
4Appointments Not Yet OpenVisitors needed a way to show interest without being told they could already
book.
5New Service Pages NeededEach planned treatment needed simple, useful information for prospective
patients.
6Office Photos Not Available YetThe planned office had to be shown through architectural renderings.
7A Busy Local Dental MarketThe website had to be organized around services that Plano residents may
search for.
Pre-Launch Planning
A Useful Next Step Even Before Appointments Begin
The office is expected to open in early 2027, so an ordinary “Book Now”
message would have been misleading. Instead, we built the website around a
priority booking interest list. Visitors can learn about the practice and
register their interest before scheduling becomes available.
We also included a studio tour using architectural renderings. This lets
people see the plans for the office even though finished interior photos are
not yet available.

How We Built It
A Simple Four-Step Website Build
We moved from planning to design, development, and launch in a clear order.
That helped keep the content, layout, and patient experience consistent.
Plan the Website
Reviewed the practice goals, planned treatments, and local audience before
outlining the main pages and navigation.
Design in Figma
Created and reviewed the website layouts in Figma so the practice could see
the design before development.
Build in WordPress
Turned the approved layouts into an editable, mobile-friendly website with
clear page navigation.
Prepare Content and SEO
Added the first service and practice pages, set up key SEO basics, and
prepared the website for launch.
Design to Development
From the Figma Mockup to the Live Site
The team started by designing how the homepage would look and how visitors
would move through the site. Once the design was approved, we built it in
WordPress.
The images below compare the approved design with the finished website.

One connected project.
The same plan guided the design, development, and opening website content,
helping the finished site feel consistent from page to page.
Website Experience
A Clear Website for Patients Exploring a New Dentist
New patients often want to know who the dentist is, which services are
planned, and when the office will open. We organized the website so those
answers are easy to find without navigating through unnecessary pages.
General and family dentistry information
Introduction to Dr. Maria Malachi
Plano location and planned opening
Office preview and dental technology
Insurance and payment details
Priority list for future appointments
The new site helps visitors find basic practice details before they make
contact.
Patient Interest
Turning Early Visits Into Meaningful Inquiries
When a dental office is still preparing to open, the website needs to set the
right expectations. Our focus was a straightforward path for visitors who
want to stay informed or become patients later.
Priority list links on important pages
Easy-to-find contact phone number
Opening date information for early 2027
Simple explanation of the patient process
Insurance-related information
Information about planned HSA and FSA use
Answers to common pre-opening questions
Founder and dentist information
Preview of the planned dental studio
Practice location and proposed hours
Building Confidence
Introducing the Dentist Before the Office Opens
Because 7 Stone Dental is new, it did not have years of patient feedback to
display. We gave the founder a dedicated profile where visitors can read
about her background, training, and approach to dentistry.
Getting to Know Dr. Maria Malachi
Dr. Maria Malachi, DMD, founded 7 Stone Dental and will serve as its general
dentist. She grew up in the Dallas–Fort Worth area and graduated from the
University of New England College of Dental Medicine. She speaks English and
Spanish.
The website also introduces her continuing education interests, including
restorative dentistry, implants, endodontics, and clear aligners. Patients
can read about the practice principles and planned tools, such as 3D imaging
and intraoral scanners, without complicated clinical language.
A personal introduction makes a difference.
Showing who will provide care and explaining what patients can expect gives a
new practice a more useful introduction than generic marketing language.
SEO Work at Launch
Getting the Website Ready for Future Local SEO
Launching the site gave 7 Stone Dental a foundation for ongoing
search engine optimization. We organized the pages and completed initial technical settings. Building
search traffic and local rankings will take further work after launch.
Editable WordPress page structure
Organized service page addresses
Central dental services page
Service information written for Plano patients
Initial Rank Math settings
Website XML sitemap setup
Public pages prepared for indexing
Social preview title and image settings
WP Rocket cache configuration
Dedicated dentist biography page
Relevant links between service pages
Educational dental blog area
Privacy and accessibility information
HIPAA notice page
What Changed
The Website Before and After Wowbix
Before Wowbix
No official practice website
No organized treatment information online
No dentist bio on a practice site
No way to join a pre-opening list online
No practice website pages for search engines
No website-level SEO configuration
No online patient education blog
No visual preview of the new office
After Wowbix
Figma-designed website developed in WordPress
More than 12 patient-facing website pages
A dedicated page introducing Dr. Malachi
A pre-opening priority interest list
Pages explaining services and office details
SEO basics, including site structure and sitemap
A section for patient education articles
An office tour using architectural images
Built for Long-Term Use
A website 7 Stone Dental can update as the practice grows.
We built the site in WordPress so the team can update its pages as the office
opens, services develop, and scheduling options change.
The practice has a flexible website to build on rather than needing to start
over when its next stage begins.
The Next Phase
Growing the Dental Website Beyond Launch
With the new website online, the next priority is ongoing SEO. Wowbix is
reviewing local searches, service page opportunities, and useful content
topics for people looking for dental care in Plano.
The launch pages cover the practice and key areas of general and family
dentistry. Future content planning may include more detailed information on
periodontal, cosmetic, orthodontic, endodontic, restorative, and emergency
dental care where it matches the practice’s planned services.
New topics will be selected based on patient questions, local competition,
and actual treatments. They will connect naturally to existing pages rather
than creating repetitive content.
The completed 7 Stone Dental website will support the next stage of SEO work.
Patient SearchesFind questions and treatment searches that matter to people in Plano.
Local DentistsStudy how other Plano practices explain services and help patients online.
Useful New PagesAdd detailed treatment information where the current website needs it.
Clear Internal LinksConnect treatment pages, general service pages, and educational articles.
A completed website is not the same as completed SEO growth.
We will assess search visibility, organic visits, and patient inquiries as
the site gains history and the ongoing SEO work progresses.
Website Launch Outcome
A New Website Ready for the Practice’s Next Chapter
Wowbix delivered a live WordPress website for 7 Stone Dental before its
expected early 2027 opening. It includes the dentist’s profile, patient
information, service pages, an office preview, and a way to register interest
in future appointments.
The design and website launch work is complete, while the larger SEO campaign
is a separate ongoing phase. We are not presenting unverified increases in
visits, rankings, or bookings as results of this launch.
