Why Orthodontic Practices Choose Missed Call Recovery

{"faqs":[{"answer":"When your front desk can't pick up, CallMyLeads instantly texts the caller back, offers to book a consultation, and can answer approved FAQ questions. The appointment lands in your existing calendar with confirmations and reminders, so nothing waits until the end of the day when interest has cooled.","question":"How does missed call text-back work for an orthodontic office that's busy with patients all day?"},{"answer":"Yes. CallMyLeads is configured HIPAA-aligned for dental and medical clients, using approved scripts only — no diagnosis or treatment advice. Business texting is registered under US carrier rules (A2P 10DLC), telemarketing quiet-hours laws are followed, and opt-outs are honored immediately and automatically.","question":"Is the AI reception compliant for a dental practice handling patient information?"},{"answer":"Yes — callers are always told they're talking to AI. Clear disclosure is a feature, not something hidden. Every caller can reach a human, continue by text, or book online, and you set the rules for when a call is routed to your team.","question":"Will callers know they're talking to AI, and can they still reach a human at my practice?"},{"answer":"It starts with a free ~15-minute scoping call to settle your plan.
