Missed Appointment & No-Show Recovery for Orthodontic Practices

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Our outreach is warm, patient, and permission-based — the opposite of urgency-driven reminder spam. You approve every script and message before anything is sent, so the tone matches your practice. The goal is a useful follow-up that gets missed patients rebooked, not a punitive no-show policy that strains relationships with compliant patients.","question":"How do you reduce no-show rates in an orthodontic practice without annoying patients?"},{"answer":"No. CallMyCustomers is a done-for-you service with no software to buy or learn. We work from a CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale list exactly as it is, and patient replies route into your existing booking process. There are no per-seat or software fees — one flat setup quote plus outreach minutes covers the full campaign mix.","question":"Do we need to buy orthodontic practice management software or change our scheduling system?"},{"answer":"For dental and clinic clients, patient outreach is handled to clinical standards under the required privacy agreements — BAA/HIPAA, TCPA, and A2P 10DLC in practice. We only work from lists of real patients, opt-outs are honored immediately, and the booking flow collects explicit consent. Public-facing messaging stays plain-language.","question":"How is patient privacy handled for orthodontic outreach?"},{"answer":"We start with a free list review, then a one-time campaign setup quoted flat based on your list size. Win-back campaigns typically run two to four weeks end-to-end, with replies coming in as soon as the first wave of outreach goes out. Our team makes the calls; texts and emails go out in your practice's name.","question":"How quickly can a no-show recovery campaign start producing rebooked appointments?"},{"answer":"Automated reminder tools send messages; we run the whole recovery campaign for you. Real humans with real judgment make the calls on your behalf, while automation handles the scale. Every script, offer, and message is approved by you first, and the service covers calls, texts, and emails under one quote — no dashboards to manage, no software stack to maintain.","question":"How is this different from automated patient reminder apps or an AI reception service?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free list review","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Send us your list — CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale export, exactly as it is.
