How AI Receptionist Solves These for Dental Offices

Unlike a single receptionist, the AI answers every incoming call instantly — no hold times, no missed calls during the lunch rush. Five patients can call at once and each gets immediate attention.

2

Insurance Pre-Screening

The AI receptionist asks callers for their insurance provider and plan details upfront, pre-screens coverage questions, and passes verified information to your billing team before the appointment.

3

Automated Recall Scheduling

Proactively calls patients due for cleanings, exams, and follow-ups. Reaches them at optimal times based on past answer patterns and books directly into open hygienist slots.

4

Emergency Triage Routing

After-hours callers with dental emergencies are assessed through guided questions. True emergencies get routed to the on-call dentist; routine matters get scheduled for the next available slot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the AI receptionist handle dental insurance questions?

Yes. It collects insurance provider, plan ID, and group number from callers, then cross-references your accepted plans. For coverage-specific questions, it routes to your billing coordinator with all details already gathered.

How does the AI handle emergency dental calls after hours?

It asks qualifying questions about pain level, swelling, and trauma. Calls meeting your emergency criteria are forwarded to the on-call dentist immediately. Non-emergencies get scheduled for the next morning's first available slot.
