| Category | Aida by Attainment | Mango Voice |
|---|---|---|
| Product focus | Dedicated dental receptionist for calls and messages, with booking, CDCP intake and emergency triage. Not a phone system. | A phone system for healthcare practices; Margo, its AI receptionist, comes with the AI Suite plan. |
| Phone system | Keeps your existing phones and number. The clinic chooses whether Aida answers every call, only unanswered calls, or only after hours. | New phones and a number port; its pricing page says porting typically takes two to four weeks. |
| PMS workflows | Aida can book directly into your practice software in real time, or send each booking to your team to confirm first. Your clinic chooses. We confirm your system and version during setup. | Margo takes the caller's details and callback number, and the team confirms later; its page says 'so the team can confirm in the morning'. Booking into the schedule by Margo is not stated on its site. Mango logs calls into practice software, including Dentrix. |
| Canadian privacy compliance | Jurisdiction-specific privacy planning. Before launch, Attainment reviews applicable provincial and federal requirements, processing location, access, retention, and vendor terms for the proposed workflow. | Names HIPAA, TCPA and FCC rules. No PHIPA or PIPEDA statement found. Ask Mango for written privacy terms for your jurisdiction. |
| CDCP intake | Automated CDCP intake. Collects the patient's details, coverage and member ID. Aida can book the appointment directly, or pass it to your team to confirm. Eligibility is confirmed by Service Canada and Sun Life. | Public CDCP workflow documentation was not found at the time of review. Confirm directly. |
| Languages | Over 100 languages; English and French (including Quebec French) ready today | Margo speaks 13+ languages, per its site; the languages are not named. |

Its terms say it may use third-party AI model providers. Ask where Canadian patient information is processed and stored. |
| Pricing | CA$500 a month per location, or CA$400 per month, billed annually (CA$4,800 per year), including tax. Unlimited calls, no setup fee. | Its AI Suite with Margo is US$399 to US$419 a month for 1 to 3 phones, more for more phones, plus a one-time implementation fee (amount not stated) and taxes and fees. |
| Setup time | Live in about a week on your existing phones. | Most practices are up and running within 30 days, per its site. |
| Messages | Takes a message by asking the caller's name, number and reason. Your team gets a summary and transcript of every call, plus the recording when your clinic chooses to record calls. | Margo collects the caller's details and callback number; the team gets an email after each call. |
| Emergency triage | For urgent or clinical moments, Aida triages emergencies and calls or texts your on-call team, and does not diagnose. Other callers get their booking made, or passed to your team to confirm, or their message taken, on the spot. | Emergency handling not described on the pages reviewed. |
| Live demo | Live demo, no signup: tap Talk to Aida and Aida answers by voice in your browser. Demo code line: (365) 400-2432. | A live demo line is not mentioned on the pages reviewed. |

What happens when Aida answers the call?
See the path from the first patient question to booking, staff follow-up, or a clinic-approved handoff.
How we calculated these numbers, and how to use them.
The missed-call and revenue figures on this page are planning benchmarks, not a forecast for any single practice. The "35% of calls go unanswered" and "75% of voicemail callers never call back" figures are widely cited dental front-desk benchmarks. Per-call revenue ranges are built from published dental practice-management benchmarking (for example, Dental Intelligence and practice CPA group averages) and typical first-year or per-case production for dental practices in Canada.
Treat every number here as a starting estimate. Before using any figure as a forecast, validate it against the practice's own call logs, case values, and conversion rates. Local market size, fee guide, and insurance mix all move the result.
Scope: this page covers the operational and revenue side of patient call handling for dental practices. It is not clinical, diagnostic, or treatment advice. Diagnosis, treatment planning, sedation, and all clinical decisions stay with the practice's licensed team.
