An AI chatbot on your dental website answers every patient question automatically — insurance accepted, new patient availability, procedure cost estimates — at any hour. So the patient searching at 8pm submits your new patient form instead of calling your competitor.
Dental front desks answer the same 15 questions 40+ times per week — insurance, availability, procedure costs. One chatbot handles all of them automatically.
Why dental practices lose new patients before the first call
Your front desk answers insurance questions constantly while managing check-ins, confirming next-day appointments, and running cards for patients at the desk. It's 3 minutes per call, dozens of times a day.
A patient new to the area searches for a dentist at 8pm. They want to know if you're accepting new patients and whether you take their insurance. No answer — they try the next practice on their Google list.
Cost questions are the second most-asked inquiry at most practices. Every unanswered one is a patient who didn't book because they couldn't get past the price question — and didn't want to call to find out.
A patient calling with a simple question shouldn't wait on hold for 8 minutes because your team is managing a crowded schedule. A chatbot handles first-tier questions instantly — no hold queue.
How it works
Insurance accepted, new patient availability, procedure cost estimates, emergency same-day policy — the chatbot knows it all from your website and the details you configure during setup.
"Yes, we're in-network with Delta Dental and Cigna. We're accepting new patients with about a 2–3 week wait for a cleaning. Here's the new patient form." Answered at 8pm Tuesday. Answered before your team arrives. Always.
The patient who would have called your competitor submits your new patient intake before you know they were there. Your team follows up with an appointment rather than a cold inquiry.
The insurance call math
The most common patient call — “do you take my insurance?” — has a 3–5 minute average handle time. At a busy practice taking 20+ of these calls per day, that's 60–100 minutes of front desk time spent answering a question your chatbot can answer instantly.
A chatbot handles the first tier — which plans you accept, whether you file out-of-network, the new patient process — and routes only the complex verification questions to your team. Front desk capacity goes toward patients in the office, not patients in the hold queue.
Founding-client pricing
Foundation: website + hosting + 24/7 AI chatbot + Google Business Profile + missed-call text-back. Growth adds local SEO, patient management, and review automation at $997/mo. Full Office adds a 24/7 AI phone receptionist at $1,497/mo.
Yes. You configure your exact insurance list — Delta Dental, Cigna, Aetna, Humana, MetLife, Guardian, United Healthcare, and others — and the chatbot answers coverage questions correctly every time. For specific benefits verification, it routes the patient to your front desk with context already established.
Fully handled. The chatbot confirms whether you're accepting new patients, describes the new patient appointment (exam, X-rays, cleaning), gives a wait-time estimate, and links to your new patient intake form. New patients submit their information before your team even knows they were there.
No. The chatbot is configured with your practice's voice and specific information — it responds like a knowledgeable front-desk team member who knows your practice cold. Patients get accurate, fast answers. Complex questions get routed to the right human.
Yes. After-hours dental emergency inquiries — what to do with a knocked-out tooth, whether you see same-day emergencies, who to call at 2am — are configured into the chatbot and answered immediately. That's often the highest-stakes moment where a fast answer wins a patient for life.

See it before you buy it
No slideshow, no actor. A screen recording of our own assistant handling the two questions every owner asks: what happens to the 9pm call I miss, and will it invent things about my business.
Real answers from our live demo bot — unscripted, recorded on this site.
Visitor: I run an HVAC company. A customer calls at 9pm and I can't pick up — what happens?
Anchor Co AI: Right now? They hit voicemail and you've lost them to whoever picks up first. With our chatbot, they hit your website at 9pm, ask “Do you do emergency service?” or “Are you licensed in my county?” — and get an instant answer. The bot captures their name, number, and address. You wake up to a lead instead of a missed call. That's the whole thing: your customers get answers 24/7, you only deal with the calls that actually need you, and you're not losing jobs to competitors who answer faster. Since you're in HVAC, the bot can handle all the common questions — licensing by county, service area, whether you do emergency calls, minimum job size, how long estimates take. You train it on your website in about 10 minutes, and it goes live in an afternoon. Want to try it? You can start free at anchorcoai.com/signup — no credit card required. Test it on your actual website for 14 days and see if it captures leads you would've missed.
Visitor: Will it make stuff up about my business?
Anchor Co AI: No. The bot only answers from what you've given it — your website content, your FAQs, pricing, service areas, whatever you add. If a question falls outside that (something the bot doesn't know), it's honest about it. Instead of guessing, it says “I don't have that info” and asks for their name and contact details so you can follow up personally. It won't make up licensing claims, pricing, or service details. That's the safeguard. Your bot is only as smart as the information you feed it — which means you stay in control of what it says about your business. Honestly the easiest way to see if it works for your business is to just try it. Free plan, no card. anchorcoai.com/signup
