The problem

A patient with a cracked tooth won't wait on hold while your front desk is tied up

Your front desk is the bottleneck. During office hours, they are checking patients in, verifying benefits, and processing claims, all while the phone rings. Lunch breaks, sick days, and after-hours calls mean even more missed calls. New patients who can't get through will book with the office down the street.

  • 68% of patients who can't reach a dental office on the first call will try a different office
  • The average dental office misses 15-20 calls per week during peak hours
  • A full-time front desk person costs C$3,000+/month, and still cannot answer when they are with a patient
  • Every missed new patient is worth C$600+ in lifetime value to your practice
