Capture Every New Patient Call — Even After Hours
Most patients research dentists in the evening and call when your office is closed. Tenmist answers those calls, collects their information, and delivers the lead so your front desk can follow up first thing.
New Patients Call After You Close
A prospective patient googles 'dentist near me' at 8 PM, reads your reviews, and calls your office. They get voicemail. They hang up and call the next dentist on the list. You never even know they called.
The lifetime value of a dental patient is $10,000-30,000 when you factor in regular cleanings, procedures, and family referrals. Every missed call isn't just one appointment — it's years of revenue.
Emergency calls are even more time-sensitive. A broken tooth, sudden pain, a knocked-out tooth — these patients need reassurance NOW. If they reach voicemail, they're calling your competitor or heading to the ER.
How Tenmist Helps Dental Offices
Captures Appointment Requests
Your AI receptionist collects the patient's name, phone, reason for calling, insurance info if mentioned, and preferred appointment times — everything your front desk needs to schedule.
Always Available
Evenings, weekends, lunch breaks, holidays. When a new patient calls, they get a professional, friendly receptionist — not a cold voicemail box.
Protects Lifetime Patient Value
One new patient is worth $10K+ over their lifetime. Tenmist costs a fraction of that and ensures you never lose a prospective patient to voicemail.
Lead Ready for Morning
Your front desk arrives to a clean email: patient name, phone, what they need, when they're available. They can call back and book the appointment before 9 AM.
Knows Your Practice
Trained on your services, insurance accepted, office hours, and location. When patients ask 'Do you accept Delta Dental?' or 'Are you taking new patients?', your AI answers confidently.
Handles Emergency Calls
For dental emergencies after hours, your AI reassures the patient, captures their details and the nature of the emergency, and flags it as urgent in your lead notification.

Here's what business owners say about switching to Tenmist.
“I was skeptical about AI answering our phones — my clients expect a personal touch. But honestly, patients can't tell the difference. We've booked 12 new patients in the first month that would have gone to voicemail.”
Dr. Sarah L.
Practice Owner, Lakeside Dental
Dental“We were losing 5-6 calls a night to voicemail. First week with Tenmist, we captured a $4,200 water heater replacement that called at 9 PM on a Tuesday. The service paid for itself before we even got our first bill.”
Mike R.
Owner, Summit Plumbing
Plumbing“The lead emails are incredible. Name, address, exactly what's wrong, when they want a callback — I wake up and know exactly which jobs to schedule first. It's like having a perfect front-desk person working all night.”

Owner, Reliable HVAC Services
