Your practice-management system by name
Only a few vendors name dental systems in writing. If yours is listed, that is the integration to ask about first.
Dental practices: which AI receptionist fits
Dental calls are new-patient inquiries, hygiene recalls, insurance questions and the occasional emergency. The practice runs on a practice-management system such as Dentrix, Eaglesoft or Open Dental, and a receptionist that cannot see that schedule can only take a message. HIPAA applies to dental records the same way it applies to medical records.
What matters for dental practices
New-patient calls answered live
A new patient who reaches voicemail calls the next office. A service that answers and books is doing the job you are paying for.
Recalls and confirmations
Hygiene recalls are outbound work. Ask whether the service handles outbound calls or only inbound.
A BAA
Dental practices are covered entities. The vendor should state it signs a business associate agreement.
This lane uses no specific practice-management system. If you run Dentrix, Eaglesoft or Open Dental, take the quiz and pick it; vendors that name your system score higher.

Not shortlisted for this lane
Smith.ai. Excluded for a medical practice: the vendor states it does not handle PHI.
“Smith.ai's virtual receptionist FAQ, as published on Nov 2, 2026, reads: 'Smith.ai is not HIPAA-compliant, so we cannot handle calls that involve protected health information (PHI).' The same answer says the company works with medical, dental and wellness practices only for non-PHI call handling such as answering FAQs, taking messages, qualifying new patient leads and transferring calls, and it recommends that practices needing HIPAA-compliant support discuss their requirements with Smith.ai before getting started.” (smith.ai)
