Consult calls tend to come in after school pickup, after dinner, or on Saturday morning, when your front desk is gone.
The AI receptionist that answers your braces and Invisalign consult calls after hours
Parents call about braces and Invisalign once they're home from work, which is usually after your office has closed. If nobody answers, they call the next orthodontist on the list. HaloDesk answers every after-hours and weekend call you forward under your practice's name, takes the consult request your team confirms the next morning, and emails your front desk a summary by 7:00 AM.
Cancel anytime in your first 30 days, owe nothing.
Why after-hours calls matter to orthodontists
An orthodontic consult usually starts with a parent's phone call. That call often comes in the evening or on a weekend, and a voicemail greeting doesn't hold on to it.
A parent comparing braces or Invisalign options often has several practices on the list. If you don't answer, the next office might.
Many callers won't leave a message, so you never learn a family called about a consult.
A loose bracket or a poking wire still needs to reach your team. HaloDesk notes it for them and gives no clinical advice.
What happens to a 7 PM consult call
A parent calls at 7 PM to ask about braces for their daughter. HaloDesk answers under your practice's name, answers hours, location and insurance questions from your list, and takes the consult request with a callback number. Your team sees it in the 7:00 AM summary and calls back to confirm the consult.
