Native Open Dental Integration

The Only AI Receptionist Built for Open Dental

OrapexAI is a 100% HIPAA-compliant AI voice receptionist that integrates directly with Open Dental in real-time. During a live call, the AI verifies existing patients by name and date of birth, checks provider availability, books appointments, assigns procedure codes, and maps primary and secondary dental insurance directly into the Open Dental database.

What is OrapexAI?

OrapexAI is a 100% HIPAA-compliant AI voice receptionist built exclusively for dental practices. It integrates in real-time with Open Dental to book appointments, verify patients, and map insurance directly during live calls. The AI agent, named Lily, answers inbound calls 24/7 and verifies existing patients using first name, last name, and date of birth via fuzzy matching logic. If the caller is a new patient, OrapexAI automatically generates a new patient profile. During the call, the AI checks live provider and operatory availability, books the appointment directly into Open Dental, and automatically assigns the correct procedure codes. Furthermore, OrapexAI collects and appends primary and secondary dental insurance information directly to the patient profile without overwriting existing claims. OrapexAI operates under a signed BAA and never uses PHI for AI model training.

Real-Time Open Dental Sync

Every action happens live in your Open Dental database. Not batch sync. Not next-day import. Real-time read and write during the live patient call.

Patient Calls Your Dental Office

After hours, weekends, or when your front desk is busy — OrapexAI answers every patient call in under 3 seconds.

Instant Patient Verification in Open Dental

OrapexAI searches your Open Dental database by first name, last name, and date of birth. Fuzzy matching handles typos and similar names. If confidence is low, OrapexAI asks the patient to spell their name.

Insurance Verification During the Call

OrapexAI reads primary and secondary dental insurance from your Open Dental patient profile. It updates insurance information automatically if the patient reports a plan change during the call.

Live Appointment Booking with Procedure Codes

OrapexAI queries available appointment slots by provider and operatory in real time. It books directly into Open Dental with ADA procedure codes attached — D0120 periodic evaluation, D0150 comprehensive evaluation, D1110 prophylaxis, or your custom codes.
