New-patient “are you accepting patients?” calls
Ava asks what you approved, then texts you. She does not invent a price.
AI answering service for dental offices
Cover the front desk when the chair is full and the phone is still ringing.
Ava can greet a caller, give the hours and address you approve, and take a name and number for a callback. She should not collect clinical details, insurance treatment histories, or anything you are not willing to have in a text message to the office phone.
Free 7-day trial, then $79, $149, or $299 a month. $0 setup.

THE CALLS
Built around dental practices and small clinics.
A one-doctor office often has one person at the front. When they are walking a patient out, the new-patient call goes to the answering machine. That caller may still be in pain or may simply book the next office that picks up.
Hours, location, and parking questions

WHAT YOU GET BACK
A lead, not a vague voicemail.
Details worth a callback
- Caller name and phone
- New patient or existing patient
- Which location, if you have more than one
- The reason in everyday words, not a diagnosis
- Best time for the office to call back
A new patient is your number to enter
We are not publishing a “value of a new dental patient.” Practices disagree, and a lot of those charts online are marketing. Example, not a forecast: 4 missed calls in a week, you assume 1 in 4 would have become a new-patient visit you would have offered, and you put that job at $200. The arithmetic is about $867 a month (4 × (1/4) × 200 × 52 ÷ 12). Change the inputs on the missed-call calculator. This is not a promise and not an industry average. Replace $200 with the figure you actually use.

FAQ
Questions before you forward the phone.
Is Ava HIPAA compliant?
No. Do not use Ava to collect health information, insurance member IDs, or clinical notes. If your compliance officer says the line must stay with trained staff, keep it there. This page is for offices that want a callback taken, not a chart started.
Can she book directly on the practice software?
No. There is no dental-software integration in this product. She texts the office the callback.
What should she say about emergencies?
Use your own sentence, such as where to go for urgent dental pain after hours. Do not leave that sentence to the model.
