Patient Call Routing

No-Shows

SMS Reminders

A text reminder is cheaper than an empty chair.

Most no-shows happen because patients simply forgot. A simple SMS the day before is enough to fill your chair and keep your schedule on track.

Send appointment reminders 24-48 hours in advance

Patients can confirm or request reschedule via reply

Follow-up texts after visits to check in

All SMS history stored alongside call records

Common questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

Can we set different routing rules per office location?

Yes. Each DialNext number has its own routing configuration. You can set separate IVR menus, ring groups, and business hours for each practice location.

How do SMS reminders work?

You send SMS messages from your DialNext number to patients on your contact list. Replies come back to the same number so your team can respond from one inbox.

Are call recordings stored securely?

Yes. All recordings are encrypted and stored in the cloud with no expiry. You can access and download them any time from your call log.

Does DialNext work with dental practice management software?

DialNext integrates with HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, and 100+ tools. For practice-specific software, our Zapier integration connects to most platforms.
