AI Front Desk for dental offices
Never send a new patient to voicemail again.
Your AI receptionist answers missed and after-hours calls and books cleanings and new-patient exams into your calendar. Dental emergencies go straight to your team.

Sample call · Dental office · English
Hear Sara book a new patient.
A new patient who just moved to town books a first checkup. Sara asks about insurance, offers open times and confirms the visit.
Simulated example: scripted situation, Sara's replies from our live system, computer-generated voices. Sara is an AI assistant.
What it handles
Built for the calls your front desk can't get to
During lunch, while the team is chairside, after 5 PM and on weekends.
Books the right visit
Cleanings and checkups, new-patient exams, emergency visits, fillings and crowns, cosmetic, Invisalign and kids' visits. Booked into your calendar.
Asks your intake questions
Whether the patient is new or returning, and the type of visit. Sara is set up not to ask for health history over the phone.
Sends emergencies to your team
Severe pain, swelling, a broken or knocked-out tooth: it transfers the call right away, or books the first emergency slot if nobody picks up.
Answers patient questions
Hours, location, parking, accepted insurance and what to expect at a first visit, using answers you approve.
Emails you every call
A summary, transcript and booking details after every call, so your team starts the day knowing who called and why.

Guardrails
Guardrails made for dental practices
- Never gives dental or medical advice or a diagnosis. It offers an appointment or a callback instead.
- Never confirms insurance coverage or quotes prices. Your team does that.
- Tells callers with trouble breathing or swelling spreading to the eye or neck to call 911 or go to the ER.
- Collects only what's needed to book: name, phone number and type of visit.
- Is set up not to discuss other patients or share patient information.
- Says it's an AI and that the call is transcribed, at the start of every call.
FAQ
Dental office questions
How much does an AI receptionist for a dental office cost?
A flat monthly plan plus a one-time setup, sized to your practice's call volume. After a free audit of how your office handles calls today, you get an exact price before anything goes live.
Does it replace my front desk team?
No. It covers the calls your team can't get to, like lunch, busy chairside moments, after hours and weekends, so they can focus on the patients in front of them. Anything complex goes to them.
Does it work with Dentrix, Open Dental or Eaglesoft?
Today it books into an online calendar your team can see, such as Google Calendar, Outlook or Cal.com. If you use practice management software like Dentrix, Open Dental or Eaglesoft, we'll plan the best setup for your office during the audit.
Is it HIPAA compliant?
Not yet. We do not currently sign Business Associate Agreements, so we don't claim HIPAA compliance, and we can't take patient information for covered practices today. Sara is set up to collect only the caller's name, phone number and type of visit. We're working on a HIPAA-ready option. Ask us where it stands, or tell us in the form below that you want to join the waiting list.
What happens with dental emergencies after hours?
You decide. It can transfer urgent calls to an on-call phone, book the first available emergency slot, or take an urgent message. Callers with serious symptoms are told to call 911 or go to the ER.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You keep your number. We turn on call forwarding so missed, busy and after-hours calls go to your AI Front Desk, and your phone still rings first. You can switch forwarding off at any time.
Will callers know they're talking to AI?
Yes. It says so at the start of every call and mentions that the call is transcribed. It speaks in a natural voice, and any caller can ask for a person at any point.
How long does setup take?
Usually under a week. We load your services, hours, insurance and FAQs, connect your calendar, turn on forwarding, then run test calls with you before it answers patients.
Front Desk + Follow-up
Every call and inquiry answered, followed up, and on your calendar.
Small businesses lose customers in the gaps: a call that goes to voicemail, a message nobody answers, an appointment nobody reminds. We cover those gaps so each step happens on its own, day or night.
- 01
They reach you
A caller or form visitor, at any hour. Our AI receptionist answers in English, Spanish, Arabic or Turkish, and says it's an AI.
- 02
Details are saved
Their name, number and request go into your customer list automatically. No retyping.
- 03
They get a reply
A friendly message with your booking link goes out, and you get an alert with the details.
- 04
Reminders, not no-shows
A reminder before the appointment and a thank-you afterwards, without anyone lifting a finger.
- 05
Nobody falls through
If a caller hangs up before they're helped, you're alerted right away, and customers who've agreed to texts get an instant message with your booking link. If no one has followed up after two days, you get a nudge with a ready-made message.
- 06
A report every Monday
One short email: calls, new leads and bookings from the week before.
You stay in control: we start with drafts you approve, and switch on automatic sending only when you're comfortable. Results depend on your business, so we don't promise specific numbers. Set up as one simple monthly plan, quoted after a free 30-minute audit.
