No-Show Reduction & Recall for Dental Office Managers with Open Dental
Run no-show reduction & recall on autopilot inside Open Dental.
The Problem
A 15% no-show rate in General Dentistry practice means 1 in 7 slots is wasted — generic Dentrix reminders don't move the needle because they're not tailored to the patient.
What We Build in Open Dental
AI sends personalized, channel-optimized reminders (SMS/email/voice) per patient preference, offers reschedule slots, and fills openings from the recall list — no-show rate drops to under 6%. Purpose-built for teams running Open Dental — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
Open Dental Integration Approach
Audit your Open Dental configuration
We map the specific Open Dental objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your general dentistry practice.
Build on the Open Dental API or agent
Integration happens inside Open Dental — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
Human-in-the-loop handoff
Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Open Dental with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
Frequently asked
