Every Missed Call Is a New Patient You Didn't Book.

Front Desk Coverage is structured overflow and after-hours intake support for dental practices — built to capture new patient opportunities without disrupting your team or replacing your staff.

Limited pilot availability — applications reviewed manually

Common Situations This Pilot Supports

Sound familiar?

  • Your front desk doesn't answer every call during the lunch rush or back-to-back appointment blocks

  • New patient calls after 6pm go to voicemail — and most don't call back

  • Your team is focused on patients in the chair, not the phone ringing at the desk

  • You're not sure how many calls you're actually missing each week

For Practice Owners

If a new patient calls at 6:10PM today, do you know what happens?

Many practices unintentionally send potential production to voicemail during peak or after-hours periods.

This pilot captures those calls in a structured way without replacing your staff.

  • Capture new-patient opportunities after hours

  • Reduce peak-hour front desk interruption

  • Maintain control and oversight

  • Run a pilot before deciding next steps

For Practice Managers

Front desk overload often happens during the same hours patients are physically in the office.

This pilot supports smoother intake without disrupting your existing workflows.

  • Structured message capture and summaries

  • Clear boundaries and escalation rules

  • 7–10 day setup before pilot

  • Pilot review period

For Referral Partners

This pilot may be appropriate for practices that:

  • Experience voicemail backlog

  • Miss new-patient calls after hours

  • Have front desk interruption during peak times

  • Prefer a structured pilot before committing

Not appropriate for:

  • Emergency clinical coverage

  • Large call centers

  • Practices seeking full staff replacement

What the Pilot Covers

This pilot focuses on capturing inbound opportunities and reducing front desk interruption.

  • Call intake and message capture

  • Appointment-related inquiries (non-clinical)

  • After-hours message handling

  • Routing messages to appropriate staff or inboxes

  • Structured summaries for follow-up

What This Looks Like in Practice

A typical scenario during peak hours:

During a busy afternoon, your front desk is assisting patients while calls continue to come in.

  • A new patient calls and requests an appointment

  • Their details are captured without interrupting your team

  • The request is routed with a clear summary for follow-up

Your staff stays focused on in-office care while opportunities are captured, organized, and ready for follow-up.

Defaults based on 2026 industry benchmarks: solo GPs target $350–$500 per appointment (Dental Practice Insider, March 2026); PPO practices average $225–$275, fee-for-service $325–$400+ (ADA HPI, 2024). Adjust to match your practice.

How the Pilot Works

  1. Application & fit review
    A short intake to confirm suitability and expectations.

  2. Workflow analysis & configuration
    Front desk workflows and routing rules are structured and configured for your practice (typically 7–10 business days).

  3. Go-live & stabilization
    Coverage begins with a brief stabilization window (typically about 7 days after go-live) to confirm routing and handoffs are working as intended.

  4. Pilot period & review
    The pilot runs for a limited term, including the initial stabilization period. Performance is reviewed, and next steps are determined together.

Built with clear boundaries. Designed for responsible use.

This pilot is:

  • Supplemental front desk coverage during overflow and after-hours periods

  • Structured intake and message capture for new patient inquiries

  • Configured to your practice's existing workflows

  • HIPAA-aware with defined data boundaries and access controls

  • Overseen by human review points built into every workflow

  • Documented transparently — you know exactly how it's configured

This pilot is not:

  • A replacement for your front desk staff

  • A chatbot or unsupervised automation

  • A clinical decision system or triage service

  • A call center or emergency coverage service

  • A system that makes scheduling commitments on your behalf

  • An open-ended or long-term contract obligation

Is this Pilot a Good Fit for Your Practice?

Good fit

  • Small to mid-size dental practices

  • Offices missing calls during peak hours

  • Teams experiencing administrative overload

  • Practices seeking controlled, test-based solutions

Not a fit

  • Emergency or on-call clinical coverage

  • High-volume call centers

  • Practices seeking full staff replacement

  • Situations requiring unsupervised automation

Currently accepting a limited number of practices for the founding pilot cohort.

Applications are reviewed manually. Not every practice will be a fit — and that's intentional. This pilot is designed to work well, not just quickly. If your practice is missing new patient calls and you're open to a structured, test-based approach, we'd like to hear from you.
