Recruiting design partners
Voice AI for dental practices on dentrix.
MedPhone is not yet live at a dental practice. We are recruiting dental design partners now, with discounted pilot terms in exchange for a case study. Dental is a priority expansion vertical.

Voice AI for dental practices on dentrix is an AI phone agent configured for dental call patterns: recall and cleaning scheduling, multi visit treatment plan coordination, heavy insurance verification volume, and emergency dental pain calls. Dental scheduling logic differs meaningfully from medical, because appointments are often assigned to hygienists rather than providers and treatment plans span several sequenced visits.
What makes dental call patterns different?
Five things separate a dental phone line from a medical one, and every one of them changes how the call flows have to be built.
- Recall scheduling dominates. Six month cleaning recall is the highest volume scheduling category in most general practices, and it is entirely predictable
- Hygienist and provider assignment differ. A cleaning goes on the hygienist schedule, an exam on the dentist, and some appointments need both in sequence
- Treatment plans span visits. A crown involves a prep visit and a seat visit with a lab turnaround between them, so scheduling the second depends on the first
- Insurance verification volume is high. Dental benefit structures carry annual maximums, waiting periods and frequency limitations that patients call to ask about constantly
- Emergency pain calls need fast routing. A patient in acute dental pain needs same day guidance, not a booking flow
What does the AI phone agent handle?
Recall and cleaning scheduling with hygienist assignment, new patient booking with dental specific intake, rescheduling and cancellation with reason logging, next visit scheduling within treatment plans where the practice configures the rules, insurance information intake, and after hours capture.
What transfers to staff
Emergency dental pain calls, clinical questions, treatment plan clinical discussion, and detailed benefits questions that need a verification lookup.
Which EHR does it work with?
Dentrix covers core scheduling workflows today, with further capabilities in active development. Additional dental practice management systems are added on customer demand, and we will go through exactly what is live for your practice on a demo.
The full integration is set out on the athenahealth AI receptionist page, the mechanics of a single call on how AI phone agents work, and what it costs on the AI receptionist pricing page. The one production deployment behind all of it is the AI phone agent case study at a family medicine practice.
For the rules behind the compliance claims rather than our summary of them, Health and Human Services publishes the HIPAA Rules.

Yes, covering core scheduling workflows in production today, with further capabilities in active development. We will go through exactly which of them are live for a practice like yours on a demo.
Yes, where the practice configures the mapping from appointment type to provider or hygienist. That mapping is set per practice rather than assumed.
It handles inbound recall scheduling. Outbound recall campaigns are a separate capability and depend on configuration, so ask about that specifically rather than assuming it is included.
Yes, where the practice configures the sequencing rules, including any required lab turnaround intervals between visits.
It transfers to staff. Acute pain needs clinical judgment about same day accommodation, and that is not a decision to hand to software.
Not yet. Dental is a priority expansion vertical and we are recruiting design partners. The only named production deployment on this site is a family medicine practice running athenahealth.
