What a missed call costs a Montreal dental office

Your hygienist column is open Tuesday and you've been calling no-shows. A first-time consult tries to book during that exact window. They got the auto-attendant and didn't leave a message.
What Avidra does
Avidra answers your phone with AI voice the moment a call lands. The caller hears a real voice. You get a structured lead summary on your phone, the same way a text would arrive.
The text doesn't replace the human conversation. It buys time for it. You still call back. You still close the job. Avidra just makes sure the lead is warm and the basics about the patients are in your inbox before you do.
Where the math breaks even
Break-even is one recovered job a month for almost every plan tier. If Avidra catches one dental lead in the trial that would have gone to voicemail, you're already ahead on the year. The trial period is 14 days, so the math has the chance to prove itself before you're paying.
Two ways to set it up
Two setup paths. Path one is forwarding: your existing business number stays the front door, calls ring to your phone, and Avidra only catches the unanswered ones. Path two is direct: the Avidra number is the front door, AI picks up every call live, and it transfers to your cell when the caller asks for a human. Most one-truck shops use path one. Larger shops with reception coverage usually move to path two.
The Free tier includes both AI voice answering and SMS text-back, so the pickup-mode choice doesn't cost extra.
Where Avidra stops
Avidra handles the intake call, the back-and-forth qualifying, and the relay messages you ask it to send to your patients. The phone is the part it owns. The work past it stays with you and your existing tools.
It doesn't book the appointment. It doesn't verify insurance. It doesn't quote coverage. The text captures the request and tells the patient a person will follow up. Everything that needs a human voice stays with your front desk.

73% of patients don't leave a voicemail. They call the next dental office on Google.
Avidra catches them in 4.2 seconds.
Calls dental offices in Montreal actually take
The calls that land most often go something like this. Wisdom tooth consult for a 19-year-old. Emergency tooth pain that started overnight. Cracked molar after biting on something hard. Denture adjustment for a long-time patient. Each one is a booking your front desk would close if they could pick up.
After-hours patterns are tighter. The questions are shorter and the patience is thinner. Swollen jaw and pain that won't stop, patient asking if they should go to ER. Post-extraction bleeding that hasn't slowed. Whoever answers first lands the appointment. Everyone else gets the voicemail tone.
What the year looks like
January spike when insurance benefits reset. Steady through the year with a dip in mid-summer and another late December.
Most dental offices can predict the peaks. The trick is keeping pickup steady through them. Avidra doesn't surge-price during your busy weeks and doesn't go quiet during the slow ones.
Getting Avidra answering your phone
Setup is two minutes. You connect your business number to Avidra, either by porting it or by setting your existing line to ring the Avidra number. The AI picks up from then on. You edit the default intake script to sound like your office, and the first real call uses your voice and your business name.
Most owners are live before lunch on the day they sign up. The honest test is to call your own line and have the AI answer. The questions land. The summary fires. You see the intake on your phone.
Why live pickup beats voicemail
Voicemail is where service leads go to die. A homeowner who hits voicemail at 7pm and gets a callback at 9am has already booked the next name on the list. Avidra picks up live, so the conversation starts in the first ring. By the time the caller would have hung up on voicemail, the AI has already captured the caller's name and address along with the basics of the call. The follow-up callback then lands into a warm conversation, not a cold one.
Common questions
What if a patient wants pricing?
The script defers pricing to a callback from the front desk. Avidra never quotes.
Can it ask about insurance up front?
Yes. The intake captures insurance provider and policy number if the patient is willing to share them by text.
Will it book appointments directly?
Booking is the front desk's call. Avidra captures the request and the preferred timing.
What about new-patient versus existing-patient calls?
The first question branches the intake. New patients get a different question set than existing patients.
What about referrals from another practice?
Referral calls can be flagged in the intake. The script asks who referred them and any treatment notes from the referring office.
