Hours of office work, done in minutes of talking. Even when you're chairside and the front desk is checking someone out.
Every call gets answered and booked while your team is with patients: the new patient who wants a cleaning, the cracked tooth that needs seeing this week, the family wanting back-to-back appointments. Reminders, recall texts, cancellation fills and balance follow-ups go out on their own. It's a 24/7 AI Office Manager you run by voice, between patients.

- No annual commitment
- Keeps your own number
- Sent this week's reminders; 31 patients confirmed
- Texted 22 patients who are overdue for their six-month recall
- Payment plan for the Harrison crown, waiting for your OK
Where a dental practice loses appointments
Most practices have open chair time and a phone that rings while the front desk is checking someone out or on hold with an insurer. Every missed call and every unfilled cancellation is a gap in the schedule that can't be sold again.
of dentists said in Q3 2026 that they weren't busy enough and could have treated more patients, up from about a quarter the quarter before.
ADA Health Policy Institute 1of dentists who were recruiting a hygienist said it was very or extremely challenging. Short-staffed teams have less time for phones.

CDC, National Health Interview Survey 3What it does for a dental practice
It isn't an answering service. Calls are one job out of many. It's an AI Office Manager that does the office work itself, around the clock, and checks with you on anything that matters.
- Answers and books every callIt picks up every call, books new and existing patients into the right appointment type and provider, and sends a text confirmation with your forms and directions. Anyone describing pain or swelling gets the urgent slots you hold and the instructions you've written.
- Sends reminders and cuts no-showsIt sends reminders on your schedule, gets a yes or a reschedule, and gives you a list each morning of anyone who hasn't confirmed.
- Runs recall and reactivationIt texts patients who are due or overdue for hygiene, offers a couple of open times and books them, working through the list until the gaps are filled.
- Fills cancellations from a short-notice listWhen a patient cancels, it contacts the people who said they'd come in on short notice and books the first one who can make it.
- Collects intake before the visitIt sends new patients your forms, collects their insurance details and reason for the visit, and has it waiting for your front desk before they arrive.
- Follows up on balances and treatmentIt sends statements and payment links through your own Stripe, QuickBooks or Xero, follows up on unpaid balances by your rules, and reminds patients about treatment you've recommended and they haven't scheduled.
- Orders supplies"Two boxes of medium nitrile gloves, prophy paste and a case of patient bibs." It sends the order to your dental supplier by email or places it on their website, and tells you when it's confirmed.

How it handles a new patient, then a treatment follow-up
Two example conversations, written to show how it works. They are not recordings of real customers. The first is a new patient calling at 12:15 pm, while the front desk is at lunch. The second is the dentist, between patients.
12:15 pm: a new patient calls
2:40 pm: the dentist, between patients
You stay in charge
It works for you, not around you.
You set the rules
Tell it, in plain words, what needs your OK first: prices over a set amount, new customers, anything you like.
Undo before it goes
Emails, texts and invoices wait in a short undo window before they leave.
Your number, your line
Calls and texts run on your own Twilio or Telnyx account. You keep the number.
Honest with callers
If anyone asks, it says plainly that it's an AI Office Manager for your business.
What is the office work costing you?
Answer a few questions about your calls, quotes and invoices. You'll see the hours you'd get back each week, the work you'd keep, what an office hire would cost instead, and which plan fits. Every assumption shows its source, and you can change it.

Questions dental practices ask
Is this just an answering service?
No. Answering calls is one thing it does. It's a 24/7 AI Office Manager that does the office work itself: it books appointments, sends reminders, runs recall, fills cancellations, collects intake, follows up on balances and treatment, orders supplies, handles email and texts, and tells you what it did.
Does it give patients clinical advice?
No. It handles scheduling and office work. For someone in pain, it books the urgent slot you've set aside and gives only the instructions you've written for it, such as calling 911 in an emergency. Clinical questions go to you or your team.
Can it check insurance?
It collects the patient's insurance details and sends them to your team before the visit. It can also send the questions and paperwork you give it to an insurer by email. It doesn't decide coverage or quote benefits beyond what you tell it to say.
Does it work with my practice management software?
It uses your calendar, email, texts and invoicing (Stripe, QuickBooks or Xero). Dental practice management systems differ in what they let outside tools do, so we review yours together on the setup call before it goes live.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You connect your own Twilio or Telnyx account and your practice number runs through it. We don't sell or provide numbers, so the line stays yours.
Will patients know they're talking to an AI?
If anyone asks, it says so plainly. When a patient wants to speak to someone at the practice, it takes the details and lets your team know right away, or puts them through if you've said to.
How does setup work?
Tell it how you work in plain words, out loud or typed: your appointment types and lengths, providers, hours, how you handle emergencies, your cancellation policy and what needs your OK. Every plan includes a 1:1 setup call, booked right after checkout: in about 30 minutes we connect your email, calendar, invoicing and phone line with you and check it works the way you do. After that, you change anything by telling it.
Which plan should I pick?
Most practices pick Growth. You get 3 seats, so your office manager and a front-desk coordinator each get their own login, and when a busy month pushes past your capacity you can purchase additional usage on the spot (Starter requires an upgrade). Starter is the entry plan for trying it at low volume. Practices with several operatories or providers that hand over the whole front desk get the most from Scale: 10 seats, the highest capacity and the fastest tier. You can move up any time: your new month starts that day, and the unused part of your old plan comes off the first charge.
