AI receptionist for dental practices
An AI receptionist that answers new-patient calls your front desk misses.
ClinicEcho picks up when your team can't: while they're checking patients out, during lunch, after hours and on weekends. It answers new-patient and insurance questions from the details you give us, follows your emergency rules, books the appointment, and emails your team a summary within a minute.
Dental demo line, Bright Smile Dental (a demo practice). Answers 24/7. Ask it anything.
New patients call at the busiest moments.
Your front desk is checking someone out, verifying insurance, or on another line when the phone rings. Then there's lunch, early mornings, evenings and weekends, which is when many people finally get around to finding a dentist or deal with a toothache.
A new patient who reaches voicemail rarely waits for a callback. They call the next practice on the list. Every one of those calls is a patient who could have stayed with you for years.
What it handles on a dental call
New-patient appointments
Exams, cleanings, consults for implants, Invisalign or cosmetic work: it collects what your team needs and books into open times.
Insurance questions
“Do you take Delta Dental?” It answers from the list of plans you give us. It doesn't check eligibility or benefits, so your team stays in charge of that.
Emergencies, by your rules
A toothache, a broken tooth, a lost crown: it follows the rules you set, such as offering your earliest emergency slot or giving your after-hours number. If something sounds like a medical emergency, it tells the caller to call 911.
Hours, location and the basics
Office hours, parking, what to bring to a first visit, whether you see children, payment and financing options: the questions that tie up your front desk.
Existing patients
Reschedule requests, recall reminders they're calling back about, and messages for the team, all written up and sent to your inbox.
Website chat too
The same receptionist can answer and book from a chat on your website, for patients who would rather type than call.
Example call
An illustration, not a recording. Call the demo line to hear the real thing.
Your team gets an email a minute later with the patient's details, insurance plan, the booked time, a short summary and the full transcript.

Your team still answers first
You set your phones to forward to ClinicEcho only when nobody picks up, during lunch, or after hours. Calls your team catches don't change.
Every conversation in your inbox
Within about a minute of each call or chat, your team gets an email summary and the full conversation, ready to act on.
Your calendar and practice software
It books into a calendar we set up for you. Where your software allows it (for example Open Dental), we can connect it directly. We confirm what's possible on your kickoff call.
Text-back for missed calls
Missed callers can get an instant text so they don't move on to the next practice. It switches on once carrier registration for your number clears, which takes about 2–3 weeks.

Questions owners ask
Will patients know they're talking to an AI?
Yes. It says it's an AI assistant for your practice and hands anything clinical or sensitive to your team.
Can it verify insurance?
No. It answers which plans you accept from the list you give us, and collects the patient's plan details for your team. Eligibility and benefits checks stay with your front desk.
How does it handle dental emergencies?
It follows your rules: for example, offering your earliest emergency appointment or giving your after-hours emergency number. It doesn't diagnose. If a caller describes a medical emergency, it tells them to call 911.
What does it sound like?
Call our demo dental practice at (602) 536-0014. Ask whether they take your insurance, or call about a toothache. It's the same receptionist we set up for your practice.
Do you sign a BAA?
Yes. We sign a Business Associate Agreement with your practice before we handle any real patient data.
How long does setup take?
About 10 business days from signing. Your team spends roughly an hour on it: one kickoff call, then a review of test calls before it goes live.
