Dental practices
24/7 AI receptionist for dental practices
New patients book with the first office that answers. Your AI receptionist picks up every call — during procedures, over lunch, after hours — books the appointment in your practice management system and sends the confirmation text before the caller hangs up.
Hear it answer — call our AI receptionist(450) 367-9990Every call answered, even with the whole team chairside
Answers every call
During procedures, at lunch, after hours, and when three patients call at once.
Books into your schedule
Reads live availability and respects providers and appointment types. No parallel calendar.
Your team stays in charge
Insurance details are passed to staff to verify. Clinical concerns are routed by your rules.
What your AI receptionist handles for your practice
The routine calls that pull your front desk away from the patient in front of them.
- New-patient intake and booking
- Recall and hygiene appointments when patients call
- Rescheduling and cancellations
- Confirmation texts after every booking
- Hours, location, parking and directions
- “Do you take my insurance?” — answered from your accepted-plans list
- After-hours and overflow calls
- Urgent calls routed to your on-call dentist
What it never does
It doesn’t diagnose, give treatment advice or quote treatment fees you haven’t approved. Pain, swelling or trauma is recorded in the caller’s own words and routed to whoever you choose. Callers who describe a medical emergency are told to call 911.
How a new-patient call sounds
