For dental practices

AI Receptionist for Dental Practices

Cleanings, recall reminders, emergency tooth pain at 6pm, parents asking about pediatric dentistry — answered in 0.4 seconds, routed to the right doctor or hygienist, booking on your RingDispatch dashboard with an ICS feed your practice-management system can subscribe to today (native PMS integrations on the Q3-Q4 2026 roadmap).

What your callers hear

Thanks for calling Sunrise Dental, this is the AI assistant — how can I help? Did you want to book a cleaning, a checkup, or is this something urgent?

Built for the calls dental practices actually get

Front desk swamped — calls drop while patients are checking in

Your receptionist can't answer the phone while she's helping the patient in front of her. RingDispatch answers every call instantly — no more callers hanging up after 4 rings.

Patients want to book with their preferred doctor

On Professional+, list every doctor and hygienist. Caller says 'book me with Dr. Patel for my cleaning' — the AI puts them on Dr. Patel's hygiene calendar at the right slot. Specialty routing built in.

HIPAA compliance: BAA, retention, consent

Add HIPAA mode for $149/mo. The AI asks for explicit recording consent on every call, retains transcripts for 6 years, and we sign a BAA. Required for protected health information.

Bilingual patient base — every caller gets answered in their language

32 languages with mid-call auto-detect. A parent calls about a pediatric appointment and switches mid-sentence to Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin, or Arabic — the AI follows in native accent. No language barrier, no transfer line, no missed appointment.

How it works for dental practices

  • Doctor + hygienist routing by name

    Dr. Patel does adult cleanings, Dr. Chen does pediatric, hygienist Maria handles same-day-cleaning walk-ins. The AI knows who books what and routes accordingly.

  • Emergency tooth-pain triage

    Set after-hours mode to 'emergencies only' — tooth pain, broken tooth, jaw injury get booked + you get paged. Routine 'cleaning question' takes a message until morning.

  • Recall-appointment ready

    Patients calling about their 6-month recall get booked without your receptionist looking up their chart. The AI says 'great, what date works for your cleaning?' and writes the appointment to your dashboard.

From $129/mo. No contract. Cancel anytime.

Three plans (Starter / Professional / Enterprise), HIPAA add-on available, voice cloning available, BYO phone number. Most dental practices start on Professional for multi-staff routing.

FAQ for dental practices

Is RingDispatch HIPAA-compliant for dental practices?

Yes — add the HIPAA mode for $149/mo on any tier. We sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), the AI asks for explicit per-call recording consent (required under HIPAA and state 2-party consent laws), transcripts are retained for 6 years, and access controls are tightened. Required for any practice handling protected health information.

Can patients book with their preferred doctor by name?

Yes — on the Professional plan and up. List each doctor and hygienist in the onboarding form (Dr. Patel, Dr. Chen, hygienist Maria). When a caller says 'book me with Dr. Patel,' the AI puts them on Dr. Patel's calendar at the right slot. Pediatric vs. adult cleanings get routed automatically.

What does the AI do for emergency dental calls (broken tooth, severe pain)?

Set after-hours mode to 'emergencies only'. The AI recognizes pain/swelling/injury keywords, books the next available emergency slot, AND pages you via SMS. Non-emergencies get a message taken for next business day.
