USE CASE · DENTAL NEW PATIENT
AI new-patient intake for dental practices
A new dental patient's lifetime value is $1,200-$3,000+ for a typical general practice and dramatically higher if they convert to cosmetic or restorative care. The first call is the most fragile point — most new-patient inquiries come from people switching insurance plans, just-moved, or unhappy with a previous office. If your front desk can't answer in 10 seconds with insurance acceptance and a near-term opening, they call the next practice on Google. The AI runs 24/7 with the right answer, the right tone, and the right slot.

Verifies insurance acceptance instantly
The AI loads your in-network list during onboarding and verifies the caller's plan against it during the call. 'Yes we take Delta Dental PPO; we don't take Medicaid' — clear, immediate, accurate. No more 'let me check and call you back' that loses 30% of inquiries.
Captures structured new-patient history
Last cleaning date, last x-rays, any current pain, current treatment plan from previous dentist, medications, conditions, allergies. The AI builds the new-patient chart skeleton so your hygienist has everything ready when the patient walks in.

Sample call — what the AI handles
Caller: Hi, I'm new to the area and looking for a dentist. Do you take BCBS PPO?
AI: Welcome to the neighborhood! Yes, we accept BCBS PPO. Are you due for a cleaning, or is there something specific bringing you in?
Caller: Just due for a cleaning, due in like 2 months.
AI: Perfect — we can get you in earlier if you'd like. New patient first visits include the cleaning, exam, and x-rays — usually 90 minutes. What's your name and date of birth so I can set up your chart?
Caller: Morgan Reilly, 11/04/1992.
AI: Thanks Morgan. I have Tuesday at 10am or Thursday at 3pm next week. Which works? I'll also email you the new-patient paperwork tonight so you save time at check-in.
