Quick Answer

The AI Dental Receptionist checks live availability in Open Dental and books the appointment directly into the right provider column, so the slot is held the moment the call ends.

How does the receptionist know what is available?

Because the integration is native, the receptionist works from the same Open Dental schedule your front desk sees. It is not guessing from a copy that updates later. When a patient calls to book, the booking reflects real availability in real time.

What happens after the call?

The appointment is written into Open Dental immediately, in the correct provider column, with no manual entry afterward. There is no second calendar to keep in agreement and no risk of double booking a chair that filled while the phone was ringing.

Does it only handle booking?

Booking is the core, but the same connection lets the receptionist handle the routine questions and requests that fill a front desk day. Your team sees everything in the system they already use, so nothing lives off to the side.
