{"faqs":[{"answer":"First reply goes out in seconds — under 10 seconds on the lead path. Whether the lead comes from a form, ad, chat, referral, or a missed call, they get an instant response by text, email, or call before they move on to the next practice on their list.","question":"How fast does CallMyLeads respond to a new orthodontic patient inquiry?"},{"answer":"Yes. Aligner inquiries from ads and forms get instant follow-up, automatic qualification and scoring, and booking into your calendar. Leads who aren't ready today are nurtured until they book or opt out, and you set the qualification questions and response rules.","question":"Can it handle Invisalign and clear aligner lead follow-up?"},{"answer":"CallMyLeads uses HIPAA-aligned configuration for dental and medical clients: approved scripts only, no diagnosis or treatment advice, and the booking flow collects explicit consent. Business texting is registered under US carrier rules (A2P 10DLC), quiet-hours laws are followed, and opt-outs are honored immediately and automatically.","question":"Is this HIPAA-compliant for patient conversations?"},{"answer":"It starts with a free ~15-minute scoping call to settle the plan. Then your lead sources are connected, your response rules are set, and everything runs automatically into your existing CRM and calendar — done for you, with a one-time flat setup fee quoted upfront and waived on annual plans.","question":"How long does setup take for an orthodontic practice?"},{"answer":"Equivalent human coverage would take at least two full-time hires; CallMyLeads costs a fraction of one salary. Unlike a traditional dental practice answering service that just takes messages, CallMyLeads answers, qualifies, scores, books with confirmations and reminders, and nurtures until booked — with per-minute pricing (14¢-21¢/min) and no seats, contracts, or minimums.","question":"How does this compare to hiring a front desk backup or a traditional dental answering service?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Connect Your Lead Sources","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Your website forms, ads, phone lines, chat, and referral sources are joined to one response system — done for you."},{"step":"2","title":"Set Your Response Rules","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"You approve the first message, qualification questions, what counts as a qualified new patient lead, and when to route to your team."},{"step":"3","title":"Leads Answered and Booked","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Every lead gets an instant response, automatic scoring, a booked consultation with reminders, and follow-up until they book — tracked from source to result."}],"ctaText":"Stop paying for leads you never get to talk to — book your free ~15-minute scoping call and get every new patient inquiry answered in seconds, 24/7/365.","eyebrow":"Speed-to-Lead for Orthodontics","benefits":[{"icon":"Zap","title":"Beat the Five-Practice Race","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Beat the Five-Practice Race: Potential new patients contact up to five practices before choosing.

When your team takes 4-6 hours to call back a clear aligner therapy inquiry, that family has already booked a new patient exam somewhere else.
