AI Agent for Dental Appointments

Your front desk misses calls. Your AI never does.

You're with a patient and the front desk phone rings. That call is a new patient going to the next office on Google.

Every call answered. More jobs booked.

For a dental practice, Stakd Systems builds a custom AI voice and chat agent that answers calls, books new patients, and confirms appointments. It is trained on 15+ years of sales experience. It's all custom built, so our team will chat with you about that.

Built for dental. Trained on your services, providers, and scheduling rules.

The problem

A missed call is a missed lifetime patient.

Your front desk is busy with check-ins, insurance, and treatment plans. Meanwhile, new-patient calls go to voicemail. Most won't call back.

Nights

New-patient calls answered on nights, weekends, and during lunch

The wait

They don't sit on hold. They call the next office

Every

call, text & web form captured & booked

Stakd is your second front desk.

Books new patients. Confirms appointments. Reschedules cancellations. Handles insurance questions. Never gets overwhelmed.

What it does

Built for dental front desks.

Answers every new-patient call

Sounds like your real front desk. Knows your services, providers, insurance acceptance, and scheduling preferences.

Books + reminds + rebooks

Schedules new patients on the right provider's calendar. Confirms appointments. Reschedules no-shows automatically.

Handles insurance Qs

Knows your accepted insurance carriers. Can answer common eligibility and billing questions before the patient even comes in.

The math

What missed dental calls cost

The call goes to someone else

You're on a job. If you don't pick up, that caller is already dialing the next company.

After hours is a dead line

Evenings, weekends, and holidays are when a lot of people finally have time to call. Voicemail doesn't book the job.

A ready lead goes cold

They reached out because they want it done. Waiting until you're free is long enough to lose them.

Results depend on your call volume, your prices, and your close rate. Run your numbers.

How we set it up

Three steps. We do all the work.

STEP 1

15-minute discovery call

We learn your practice, providers, insurance, services, and scheduling rules.

STEP 2

We build your dental AI

Custom-trained on YOUR practice. Plugged into your phone and scheduling system. Tested end-to-end.

STEP 3

Front desk gets backup, 24/7

Every call captured. Every new patient answered. More booked. Every confirmation sent. Your real front desk gets to breathe.

No-shows & recall

Fewer empty chairs. More kept appointments.

An open chair still costs you the hygienist's hourly wage and the overhead — but produces nothing. A single reminder text isn't enough anymore.

Confirmations that actually confirm

A 3-touch text sequence — 72 hours out, 24 hours out, and morning-of — that asks the patient to confirm, reschedule, or cancel. Not a one-shot reminder they ignore.

Cancellations backfill themselves

When someone cancels, the slot doesn't just sit empty. The AI reaches out to patients who asked to come in sooner and offers them the opening — filling the gap before your front desk even notices it.

Recall that never lapses

The patients who "meant to book their six-month cleaning" and never did are money sitting on your books. The AI works your overdue-hygiene list and gets them scheduled — automatically, on repeat.

Every no-show costs you twice.

You lose the production for that chair and the chance to have booked someone else in it. Automated confirmations and automatic backfill shrink both.

Case acceptance

Diagnosed isn't the same as scheduled.

Patients say yes in the chair, then leave to "think about it" — the crown, the implant, the perio treatment. Most never call back. The clinical need doesn't go away; the revenue does.

DAY 1

Follow up while it's fresh

The AI checks in the same day, references the specific treatment the doctor recommended, and makes booking a single tap away.

WEEK 1

Answer the real objection

Cost and timing are what stall most plans. The AI surfaces financing and payment options and offers to hold a slot — without a hard sell.

ONGOING

Keep the plan alive

Unscheduled treatment stays on a gentle cadence instead of dying in a folder. When the patient's ready, the path back is already open.

Your unscheduled treatment is already-earned revenue.

Those diagnoses are done. The exam happened, the x-rays are taken, the plan is written. Following up on them is the highest-margin work your front desk can do — and the first thing that falls off when they're slammed.

Nights & weekends

New patients don't call on your schedule.

People research a new dentist after work, on lunch, on a Sunday night when a tooth starts aching. If your office is closed and it goes to voicemail, they've already opened the next practice's website.

Books at 9 PM as easily as 9 AM

The AI answers after-hours calls and website chats, gives a real first-visit experience, and puts the new patient on the schedule — instead of promising "someone will call you back Monday."

Answers the first-visit questions

"Do you take my insurance?" "How much is a cleaning without insurance?" "Do you see kids?" The AI handles the exact questions that decide whether a new patient books you or keeps dialing.

Triages the true emergencies

Swelling, trauma, uncontrolled pain — the AI recognizes an urgent call, follows your protocol, and gets the patient to the right next step instead of losing them to the emergency clinic down the road.

Dental questions

Everything you need to know.

How does the AI handle new-patient calls when the front desk is busy?

When your team is on another line or with a patient, the AI picks up immediately instead of dropping the caller to voicemail. It greets them with your practice name, answers common questions about services, insurance, and hours, then books the new patient right on your schedule — so you get the booking instead of losing it to the practice down the street.

Will it work with our practice management software?

It's built to run alongside the PMS you already use. It syncs with your calendar for real-time availability, hands your team clean appointment details, and fires the confirmation and follow-up sequences off your existing workflow. We handle the setup so there's no technical burden on your front desk.

Can it follow up on treatment plans patients didn't schedule?

Yes — this is one of the biggest wins. When a patient leaves without booking recommended treatment, the AI follows up over the following days and weeks, references the specific work the doctor discussed, addresses cost and timing hesitations, and makes rescheduling a single tap.

How is patient privacy handled?

We take it seriously and design the workflows with healthcare communication standards in mind. The AI only handles what it needs for booking and follow-up; detailed clinical or health discussions are always routed to your team. We work with each practice to make sure the setup aligns with your compliance requirements — never a copy-paste config.

How quickly can we go live?

Most practices are running in days. Every system is custom-built for your office — trained on your practice name, providers, services, insurance acceptance, hours, and scheduling rules. We configure the call routing, build the sequences, and test everything before it ever touches a real patient.

What does it cost?

It's all custom built, so our team will chat with you about that.

Pricing

Every quote is custom. Here's why.

A solo plumber with 50 calls/month needs a different setup than a 12-truck HVAC with 500. We don't pretend otherwise.

Call volume

More calls = bigger build.

Channels

Voice, chat, SMS, Instagram — pick what fits.

Integrations

Your CRM, calendar, dispatch — we wire it in.

Build complexity

Industry-specific scripts, multi-location, etc.

No contracts. Month to month.

FAQ

Common questions

How does the AI handle new patient calls when the front desk is busy?

When your front desk team is on another call or unavailable, the AI voice agent picks up immediately instead of sending the caller to voicemail. It greets the caller professionally using your practice name, answers common questions about your services, insurance acceptance, and hours, then books the new patient appointment directly on your schedule. The caller gets a live, helpful experience and you get the booking — instead of losing them to a competitor.

How does the no-show recovery sequence work?

When a patient no-shows, the AI automatically reaches out via text after the missed appointment. It sends a friendly, non-judgmental message acknowledging the missed visit and offering easy rebooking options. If the patient does not respond, the AI follows up again at 24 hours and 72 hours with different messaging. This automated sequence recovers many no-shows that would otherwise be permanently lost revenue.

What does the appointment confirmation sequence look like?

The AI runs a 3-touch confirmation sequence: 72 hours before the appointment, 24 hours before, and 2 hours before. Each touchpoint is via text and asks the patient to confirm, reschedule, or cancel. If a patient cancels or reschedules, the AI opens that slot and can reach out to patients on your waitlist to fill it. A multi-touch confirmation sequence like this reduces no-shows far more than a single reminder text.

Can the AI follow up on unaccepted treatment plans?

Yes. When a patient receives a treatment plan but leaves without scheduling, the AI initiates a follow-up sequence over the following days and weeks. It sends personalized messages referencing the specific treatment discussed, addresses common hesitations like cost concerns and timing, and makes it easy to schedule with one tap. This helps more patients move forward with the treatment they've already been recommended.

Will the AI integrate with my dental practice management software?

The AI is designed to work alongside your existing practice management system. It can sync with your calendar for real-time availability, send appointment details that your team can enter into your PMS, and receive triggers for follow-up sequences. We handle the integration during setup so there is no technical burden on your team.

How quickly can we get set up?

Most dental practices are fully live in days — every system is 100% custom-built for your specific practice. We handle everything — training the AI on your practice name, services, providers, insurance acceptance, hours, and scheduling preferences. Your team does not need to do any technical work. We configure the call routing, build the confirmation and follow-up sequences, and test everything before going live.

What does this cost?

It's all custom built, so our team will chat with you about that.

Is the AI HIPAA-compliant?

We take patient privacy seriously. The AI is designed with healthcare communication standards in mind. It does not store or transmit protected health information beyond what is necessary for appointment booking and follow-up. Detailed health discussions are always routed to your clinical team. We work with each practice to ensure our communication workflows align with their compliance requirements.
