A typical dental practice is open 32 hours a week. That leaves 136 hours every week where incoming calls go unanswered. At 2 to 3 new patients captured per month, that is $10,000 to $90,000 in additional annual revenue from calls that would have gone to voicemail.

What is a dental AI receptionist?
A dental AI receptionist is an automated phone answering system built for dental practices. It answers incoming calls around the clock, books appointments directly into your practice management software, responds to common questions about hours, insurance, and services, triages dental emergencies, and sends SMS confirmations to patients after booking.
How does the AI receptionist integrate with Dentrix or Eaglesoft?
The system connects directly to your practice management software via API. When a caller books an appointment, it writes directly into your schedule in Dentrix, Eaglesoft, or Open Dental. No manual entry required on your end.
Is the dental AI receptionist PHIPA compliant?
Yes. The system is fully PHIPA compliant. All patient data is stored in Canada and encrypted in transit and at rest. No patient data is shared with third parties. It is designed specifically for Canadian healthcare privacy requirements.
How long does setup take?
Most dental practices are live in 2 to 3 weeks. Setup includes connecting your practice management software, configuring your call scripts and knowledge base, and testing before going live.
Does the AI receptionist replace my front desk staff?
No. It is designed as backup for overflow calls and after-hours coverage, not as a replacement for your team. Your front desk staff focus on patients who are physically in the practice. The AI handles the calls they would otherwise miss.
What happens when a patient has a dental emergency?
The system identifies emergency language in the call and routes it to your on-call line immediately. It does not leave emergencies in a queue or take a message. Urgent calls get immediate attention.
How much does a missed dental call cost?
For general dentistry, a missed call is worth approximately $850 to $1,300 in first-year patient revenue. For implant or prosthodontic practices, that figure ranges from $5,000 to $30,000 per missed call, based on Dental Economics 2025 industry data.
What if the AI cannot answer a question?
For calls outside its configured scope, the AI collects the caller's name and number and schedules a callback from your team. It never leaves a caller without a next step.
Can I hear a demo before committing?
Yes. Book a 20-minute demo and we will run through real call scenarios for your practice type. You hear exactly what your patients would hear when they call.
What practice management software does it support?
Dentrix, Eaglesoft, and Open Dental. These cover the majority of Canadian dental practices. If you use a different system, ask during the demo call and we will confirm compatibility.
