Your oral surgery practice captures every consultation call. Day or night.
35% of dental calls go unanswered. Of those callers, 75% never try again. An AI receptionist configured specifically for oral surgery practices answers every call, books appointments, and handles patient questions around the clock.

Oral surgery referrals have high urgency. Patients referred by their dentist typically call the same day. If your office is closed or the line is busy, they call the next oral surgeon on the referral list.
Why oral surgery practices miss calls.
The problem is not your staff. It is the hours when calls arrive versus when your office is open.
Referred patients call immediately after their dentist visit. If you do not answer, they find another oral surgeon.
Post-operative concern calls arrive evenings and weekends when staff are not there.
Consultation scheduling requires multiple steps. Overwhelmed front desk loses overflow.
Wisdom tooth extraction calls are high-volume and time-sensitive. Patients book with whoever answers first.

Book a DemoFrequently asked questions about AI receptionists for oral surgery practices.
Can the AI handle post-operative concern calls after hours?
Yes. The system is configured with your post-op protocols. It handles common post-operative questions such as bleeding, swelling, and pain management, and escalates calls that indicate complications to your on-call surgeon immediately.
How does it handle referral calls from general dentists?
Calls from referring dentists are identified and handled differently from patient calls. The system collects the patient information, procedure type, and urgency, then books the consultation and sends a confirmation to both the referring dentist and the patient.
What is the missed call cost for an oral surgery practice?
A missed wisdom tooth extraction consultation is worth $1,500 to $3,000. A missed implant consultation is worth $4,000 to $8,000 per tooth. At 3 missed consultations per week, that is $300,000 to $1.2 million in annual procedures not captured.
Can it triage true dental emergencies versus post-op concerns?
Yes. The system distinguishes between routine post-op questions and urgent situations requiring immediate care. Genuine emergencies are routed to your on-call line within seconds. Non-urgent post-op concerns receive a scheduled callback from your team.
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 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.
