An AI chatbot for your dental practice website
An AI chatbot for a dental practice website answers the questions your front desk repeats all day (are you taking new patients, do you take my insurance, what does a cleaning cost without it, can you see my toothache today) from your office's own notes, and turns the conversation into an appointment request. A custom one costs $2,500, built in 1 to 3 weeks, and you own it.
The demo below is set up for a made-up family practice. Ask it what your patients ask.

What it handles for a dental office
New patients at night
Most people look for a dentist after work. The chatbot tells them you're accepting new patients, what the first visit involves, and takes their name and number so your team calls in the morning, before they book somewhere else.
Insurance questions, without promises
It says what your notes say, for example which plan types you're in network with and that you'll verify their plan before the visit. It doesn't guess coverage, because the notes don't let it.
Emergencies
Your rule, word for word: same-day openings before a certain hour, the after-hours number for swelling or trauma. The request is flagged so it's the first call back.
Self-pay prices
If you publish cash prices or a membership plan, it quotes exactly those. If you'd rather not, leave them out of the notes and it offers a call instead.
Patient privacy
This chatbot answers general questions and collects a name, number and reason for the visit, like a website contact form. It doesn't connect to your practice management software or keep treatment records. If you want it to read charts, check eligibility or handle protected health information, that needs a HIPAA-ready setup with a business associate agreement from every service involved. That's possible, and it's quoted separately before any work starts.
Build or buy
If you already pay for a patient communication platform such as Weave or NexHealth, use its texting, reminders and online scheduling first. They're built for dental offices and your team knows them. A custom chatbot makes sense when you want your website itself to answer questions in your office's voice and send requests to the inbox or platform you already use, with no per-seat or per-location fee.

Questions
Is it HIPAA compliant?
As built here it handles general questions and appointment requests, like a contact form, and doesn't touch treatment records. Handling protected health information needs a HIPAA-ready setup with business associate agreements, which is quoted separately.
Will it tell patients what their insurance covers?
No. It repeats what your notes say about the plans you accept and offers to verify their plan before the visit. It can't guess coverage.
Can it book straight into our schedule?
Where your scheduling software allows it, yes. Otherwise it sends a request your team confirms. Which one is possible is checked before the fixed quote.
What does it cost to run each month?
For one office, usually a few dollars to about $20 a month in AI and hosting fees, paid straight to the providers. There's no per-seat fee.
Who owns it?
You do. Once the final payment clears, the code and the accounts are yours.
