The Problem
Your phone is costing you money

These are the top call-handling challenges dental practices face every day โ€” and what Mia fixes.

๐Ÿฆท

After-hours tooth pain calls

Pain calls after hours are lost revenue โ€” and ER referrals you didn't earn. Mia answers and books emergency slots before the patient gives up.

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ

Front desk overwhelmed at peak times

Your receptionist is with a patient in the chair while three more calls come in. Mia handles overflow instantly โ€” no caller put on hold, no call dropped.

๐Ÿ“‹

New patient intake eats staff time

Mia collects insurance info, chief complaint, and preferred appointment times upfront โ€” so your front desk starts every new patient conversation already prepared.

Mia in Action
How Mia handles a real dental call

This is the kind of call dental practices get every week. Here's exactly how Mia handles it.

Live call transcript
Patient Hi, I'm so sorry to call this late. I have really bad tooth pain on my upper right side โ€” it started this afternoon and it's getting worse.
Mia No need to apologize โ€” tooth pain can't wait. Is it a constant ache or does it spike when you bite down or drink something cold?
Patient It's constant now. I took ibuprofen but it's barely helping.
Mia That pattern โ€” constant pain that doesn't respond much to ibuprofen โ€” is something the dentist will want to look at first thing tomorrow. I can book you for our first emergency slot at 8am. Can I get your name and date of birth to pull up your file?
Patient Sarah Nguyen, April 3rd 1988.
Mia Got you, Sarah. I've booked you for 8am tomorrow. You'll get a text confirmation shortly. In the meantime, keep taking ibuprofen every 6 hours with food, and avoid anything very hot or cold on that side.
๐Ÿ’ฐ The revenue math for dental practices: A dental practice missing 25% of its 52 peak daily calls loses an estimated $138,710/month in direct revenue โ€” based on a $485 average visit value. New patients are worth $1,500โ€“$3,000 in lifetime value. A single month of unanswered calls can cost a practice its entire marketing budget.

โš ๏ธ January and late August are your two busiest call spikes

January brings a surge of patients using fresh insurance benefits. Late August brings back-to-school checkups. Both windows produce 30โ€“40% more inbound calls than average โ€” and a front desk that can't keep up loses new patients permanently.

Real Scenarios
What Mia actually does for dental practices

These are the exact situations dental practices face every week โ€” and how Mia handles them.

1

A patient calls Saturday evening with a cracked tooth

Mia answers, gathers their name, DOB, and insurance info, and books an emergency slot for Monday morning. No missed patient, no ER referral.

2

Your front desk is with a patient and three calls come in at once

Mia handles all three simultaneously โ€” books appointments, answers insurance questions, takes messages โ€” no one put on hold.

3

A new patient found you on Google and asks about insurance

Mia checks against the list you've provided, answers confidently, and books the new patient consult on the spot.
