The problem
A patient with a cracked tooth won't wait on hold while your front desk is slammed
Your front desk is the bottleneck. During office hours, they are checking patients in, verifying insurance, pulling charts, and answering the phone all at once. Lunch breaks, staff callouts, and after-hours calls mean even more missed calls. New patients who can't get through will Google the next dental office and book there instead.
- 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 $2,500+/month, and still cannot answer when they are with a patient
- Every missed new patient is worth $800+ in lifetime value to your practice

How Dental Offices Use Jodie
Emergency Toothache
The situation: A patient calls at 7pm with a severe toothache that started after dinner. They are in pain and need to know if they can be seen first thing tomorrow morning.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers right away, asks about the pain level, when it started, and whether there is swelling or fever. You get a text with all the details so you can slot them in as an emergency appointment first thing.
Calls During Procedures
The situation: Your dentist is mid-procedure and the front desk is verifying insurance for the next patient. Three calls come in at once: a new patient, a reschedule, and someone asking if you take their Delta Dental plan.
Jodie handles it: Jodie handles all three calls at once. She takes the new patient details, processes the reschedule request, and lets the insurance caller know which plans you accept. Your team gets a summary for each.
New Patient Appointment
The situation: Someone just moved to town and wants to find a new dentist. They found you on Google and call to ask if you are accepting new patients and whether you take Cigna.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, confirms you are accepting new patients, notes their insurance plan, and collects their name and contact details. You get the lead ready to schedule their first visit.
After-Hours Emergency
The situation: A parent calls at 8pm because their kid knocked out a tooth at baseball practice. They need to know what to do right now and whether you can see them first thing.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, asks about the injury, gives reassuring guidance about keeping the tooth moist, and gets the details so you can schedule an emergency appointment as soon as the office opens.
