Common Challenges We Solve
Are you missing patient calls during lunch and evenings?
Most Austin dental clinics lose 20-30% of inbound calls to voicemail because staff can't answer during peak times. VoiceFleet answers every call in real-time, schedules appointments directly into your calendar, and transfers emergency patients to your on-call dentist instantly. Patients get served immediately instead of calling competitors.
Is your front desk spending 60% of their day on routine calls?
We've automated clinics where staff were answering the same questions about hours, services, and pricing 100+ times daily. VoiceFleet handles these instantly, freeing your team for complex scheduling, insurance verification, and patient care. One Austin practice redirected their front desk to patient follow-up calls instead of answering phones.
Are new patient inquiries falling through the cracks?
Unanswered calls are lost revenue—each missed call represents a potential patient choosing another Austin dentist. VoiceFleet qualifies new leads in real-time, captures contact information, and schedules consultations automatically. Practices using VoiceFleet report 40% more new patient appointments booked.
Use Cases
How do emergency dental practices handle after-hours emergencies with VoiceFleet?
VoiceFleet routes emergency calls directly to your on-call dentist's phone within seconds while documenting the patient's symptoms. This eliminates missed emergency calls and improves response time from hours to minutes. Austin emergency dental services using VoiceFleet report handling 3-5 emergency calls per week that would have previously gone unanswered.
How do pediatric and orthodontic practices use VoiceFleet for appointment reminders?
VoiceFleet can proactively call patients 24 hours before appointments, reducing no-shows by up to 35%. For orthodontists managing 300+ active patients, this automation eliminates manual reminder calls while improving attendance rates. Parents appreciate the reminder and practices see better treatment outcomes from consistent appointments.
How do multi-location dental groups manage calls across all offices?
Large Austin dental groups use VoiceFleet to route calls to the nearest location based on the patient's zip code or preferred dentist. Patients get directed to the right practice instantly, reducing transfer delays and improving first-contact resolution. One multi-location group reduced call routing errors by 90%.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does VoiceFleet cost for a dental clinic?
VoiceFleet starts at $299/month for single-location dental practices, including up to 5,000 answered calls monthly. This includes appointment scheduling integration, call recording, and basic analytics. Multi-location practices and high-volume clinics receive custom pricing. Compare this to $2,000-$4,000 monthly for a full-time phone staffer or answering service, and VoiceFleet pays for itself within the first month.
Does VoiceFleet integrate with my practice management software?
Yes. VoiceFleet natively integrates with Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Optibase, and all major practice management systems via API. When a patient schedules an appointment through VoiceFleet, it automatically appears in your calendar with their contact info, treatment history, and insurance notes. If your system isn't listed, we offer Zapier integration as a backup.
How natural does the VoiceFleet AI voice sound?
Our AI uses advanced voice synthesis with natural pauses, inflection, and conversational tone—patients typically don't realize they're speaking to AI within the first 10 seconds. We offer multiple voices (male, female, different accents) so you can match your clinic's personality. Austin practices report 92% of callers saying the voice sounds human or nearly human.
What happens when the AI can't understand a patient's request?
VoiceFleet seamlessly transfers to your team, your answering service, or an on-call dentist—you decide. The AI never guesses. Patients can press '0' anytime to speak to a human. Based on our data, 85% of calls are fully resolved by AI, 12% are transferred with full context captured, and 3% reach voicemail. Patients never feel frustrated or stuck.
How quickly can we get VoiceFleet live for our Austin practice?
Most dental clinics go live within 24 hours. Setup takes 30 minutes: you connect your phone number, upload your FAQs and services, and configure appointment types. No technical knowledge required. We've had Austin practices handling calls by end of business the same day they signed up.
