Dental practices

An AI receptionist for dental practices that never gives advice

Your front desk is with a patient and three lines are ringing. This answers all of them, books the check-up and the cleaning for the length they really take, works around a Friday that finishes at one — and when somebody describes a pain, it does not guess. It writes down exactly what they said and tells you.

What it does on the call

It books the chair — and refuses to give clinical advice.

A check-up and a cleaning in the same visit hold the length both of them actually take, not one generic appointment.

Each dentist and hygienist has their own days, so a Friday that finishes at one o’clock is offered as a Friday that finishes at one o’clock.

A caller asking for a named dentist gets that dentist — or is told plainly who else could see them sooner.

It does not answer clinical questions. It takes the patient’s own words and their number, and that reaches you as somebody waiting on a call back.

True in every trade

Your customers’ languages

Over twenty, recognised as the caller speaks. Nobody presses a key and nobody has to ask.

A book you can actually read

Today’s list, a calendar, and the written transcript of the call behind every single row.

Change it in a sentence

New service, new hours, a day off — write it the way you would say it. There is no settings screen to hunt through.

Your customers cancel by text

The confirmation text is also how they get out of it. They reply, the slot goes back into your book, and you are told if it was for today — no queue, no app, and nobody has to phone you back to cancel.

Your side is in your language too

The dashboard is in English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Italian, and both Simplified and Traditional Chinese — dates and durations included. You should not have to work in your second language to run your own book.

A person, when they ask for one

Add and confirm your mobile and “can I speak to someone?” rings it. Until you confirm it, the receptionist never offers a transfer it cannot make — it takes a message instead.

Questions

Dental practices: the things people ask first

What happens when somebody describes a symptom?

It does not interpret it. Not “that sounds like it can wait until next week”, not a triage judgement of any kind — it records the patient’s own words, takes their number, and puts it in front of you as somebody waiting on a call back. A receptionist who improvises clinical reassurance is a liability, and one that improvises confidently is worse.

A check-up and a cleaning together take longer. Does it hold both?

Yes, each with its own length, back to back in one visit. In the recording on this page the caller asks how long a cleaning actually runs — in Cantonese, mid-call — and gets the length you set, not a round number.

We finish at one on Fridays. Will it try to book two o’clock?

No. Hours are read from how you wrote them, including days that are shorter than the rest of the week, and each clinician can have their own. You change any of it by writing a sentence.

Many of our patients are more comfortable in another language.

Then this is the recording to play. One booking, three languages, nobody pressing a key — and the patient never has to conduct a health conversation in their second language just to get an appointment.
