Dental Answering Service

AI Receptionist for Dentists

Focus on patient care while Marlie handles the phones. We book appointments, answer FAQs, and triage emergencies 24/7.

Hero

Exceptional care starts with the first call

In a busy dental practice, the front desk is often overwhelmed. Missed calls mean missed appointments and frustrated patients who may turn to another dentist for urgent needs. You can't interrupt a procedure to answer the phone, but you need a reliable way to capture every opportunity.

Marlie provides a 24/7 AI answering service designed for dental practices. We handle routine inquiries, schedule hygiene appointments, and intelligently triage emergency calls. With Marlie, you improve patient satisfaction, fill your chair time, and reduce overhead costs - all while providing a seamless patient experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Marlie handle dental emergencies?

Yes. Marlie can be configured to recognize keywords like 'severe pain', 'broken tooth', or 'swelling' and immediately escalate these calls to your on-call dentist or emergency line, while handling routine calls normally.

Does Marlie integrate with dental practice software?

We integrate with many popular scheduling platforms and CRMs. If we don't have a native integration for your specific dental software, we can often build a custom connection or use Zapier to sync data.

How does Marlie handle insurance questions?

Marlie can answer basic questions about which insurance plans you accept. For specific coverage verification, the AI can take a message with the patient's details or transfer the call to your billing specialist.

What is the cost for a dental practice?

Marlie offers a cost-effective solution starting at $49/month with usage at just $0.25 per minute. This is a fraction of the cost of a full-time receptionist or a traditional medical answering service.

Can I customize the greeting?

Absolutely. You can tailor the greeting and conversation flow to match your practice's tone, whether it's warm and family-friendly or professional and clinical.
