The Problem

Challenges Dental Clinics Face

No-Shows Kill Revenue

Patient books cleaning, doesn't show up. Chair sits empty for 30 minutes. Your time wasted, เงณ17,600 revenue lost. 25% no-show rate is common.

6-Month Recalls Forgotten

"See you in 6 months!" they say. 6 months pass. Patient forgot. No reminder sent. They went to another dentist closer to their new office.

Phone Busy During Procedures

Patient calling to book. You're doing a root canal. Phone keeps ringing. Receptionist Anita is with another patient. Caller gives up, books elsewhere.

Treatment Plans Abandoned

Patient needs 3-sitting root canal. Completed sitting 1. Never came back for 2 and 3. No follow-up system, treatment incomplete, tooth eventually lost.

Few Reviews, Invisible Online

You fixed their smile. They loved it. No Google review. New patients search "dentist near me" - competitor with 500 reviews shows up first.

Post-Care Issues Unreported

Patient had extraction yesterday. Experiencing unusual bleeding at night. Too shy to call. Waits until morning. Could have been prevented with timely guidance.

Solutions

10 Ways WhatsApp Automation Grows Your Dental Practice

Fill chairs, reduce no-shows, and build patient loyalty

1

24/7 Appointment Booking

Journey Starter+ $29

Let patients book appointments anytimeโ€”even at midnight when they wake up with tooth pain. No missed calls, no lost bookings.

JOURNEY: Appointment Booking
TRIGGER: Keywords "book", "appointment", "dentist"
STEP 1: Ask what treatment they need (menu A-F)
STEP 2: Show available slots for that treatment type
STEP 3: Confirm appointment with date, time, doctor
STEP 4: Send pre-visit instructions
THEN: Tag as "appointment-booked" for reminder sequence
How it works: Treatment selection helps you prepare - tooth pain gets 45-min slot, cleaning gets 30-min. After-hours bookings captured automatically. Reduces receptionist workload by 40%. Patients love the convenience.

Workflow tip: Include your address in confirmation message - patients often forget where the clinic is located.
2

Smart Appointment Reminders

Sequence Starter+ $29

Reduce no-shows by 60% with automated reminders sent 24 hours and 2 hours before appointment. Confirmation required.

SEQUENCE: Appointment Reminders
TRIGGER: Tag "appointment-booked" added
DAY -1 (24hrs before): Send confirmation reminder
  - Wait for โœ…/๐Ÿ”„/โŒ response
  - If ๐Ÿ”„: Start reschedule journey
  - If โŒ: Mark as cancelled, open slot
HOUR -2 (2hrs before): Send final reminder with directions
POST: After appointment, tag "visit-completed"
How it works: 24-hour reminder catches cancellations early so you can fill the slot. Emoji responses make replying easy. 2-hour reminder includes Google Maps link and parking info. Automated flow handles confirmations without staff intervention.

Workflow tip: If patient doesn't respond to 24-hour reminder, receptionist gets notification to call.
3

6-Month Recall Campaigns

Campaign Pro $99

Never lose a patient to forgetfulness. Automatically remind them when it's time for their next cleaningโ€”6 months after last visit.

CAMPAIGN: 6-Month Recall
TARGET: Contacts where last_visit_date = 6 months ago
MESSAGE: Recall reminder with benefits + free bonus offer
FOLLOW-UP DAY +7: If no response, send gentle reminder
FOLLOW-UP DAY +14: Final reminder with urgency message
TRACK: Booking rate, revenue from recalls
How it works: System tracks last visit date automatically. At 6-month mark, campaign triggers. Free fluoride treatment creates incentive (low cost for you, high value for patient). "CALL ME" option for patients who prefer phone booking. This single campaign can generate 30-40% of your monthly revenue.

Workflow tip: Segment by treatment type - orthodontic patients get 1-month recall, cleaning patients get 6-month.
4

Treatment Plan Follow-Up

Sequence Starter+ $29

Ensure multi-sitting treatments are completed. Automated follow-ups for root canals, crown fittings, and implants prevent treatment abandonment.

SEQUENCE: Multi-Sitting Treatment
TRIGGER: Tag "root-canal-sitting-1" added after first visit
DAY 0: Send progress update + book sitting 2
DAY +3: If not booked, send reminder with urgency
DAY +7: If still not booked, send final warning about risks
THEN: When sitting 2 completed, repeat for sitting 3
EXIT: When full treatment completed, tag "treatment-complete"
How it works: Visual progress tracker shows patient where they are. Educational messaging (save your tooth) creates urgency without fear. Automated follow-ups ensure no patient falls through the cracks. Treatment completion rate increases from 60% to 90%.

Workflow tip: Track abandonment reasons - if cost is the issue, offer payment plans in follow-up messages.
5

Post-Procedure Care Instructions

Sequence Starter+ $29

Send care instructions immediately after extractions, root canals, or surgeries. Reduces complications and unnecessary panic calls.

SEQUENCE: Post-Procedure Care
TRIGGER: Tag "extraction-done" added
DAY 0 (immediately): Send DO/DON'T care instructions
DAY +1 (next morning): Send check-in message
  - "How are you feeling?" with emoji response options
  - If concerned emoji, alert doctor
DAY +3: Send healing progress message
DAY +7: Send follow-up appointment reminder
How it works: Immediate instructions prevent patient anxiety ("what should I do now?"). Clear DO/DON'T lists reduce complications. Emergency signs listed prevent panic calls for normal symptoms. Next-day check-in shows you care and catches issues early.

Workflow tip: Create separate care sequences for different procedures - root canal, extraction, surgery, etc.
6

Instant Clinic Info Auto-Reply

Rule Starter+ $29

Automatically answer common questions about timings, services, fees, and location. Free your receptionist to focus on in-person patients.

TRIGGER: Message contains "timing" OR "hours" OR "open"
ACTION: Send clinic hours message
---
TRIGGER: Message contains "price" OR "cost" OR "fees" OR "charges"
ACTION: Send service pricing message
---
TRIGGER: Message contains "location" OR "address" OR "where"
ACTION: Send address with Google Maps link
---
TRIGGER: Message contains "emergency"
ACTION: Send emergency contact + immediate slot offer
How it works: Keyword matching triggers instant relevant replies. Complete pricing prevents "fee surprise" no-shows. Sunday hours clearly mentioned. Maps link helps patients find you easily. "BOOK" CTA at end captures booking intent.

Workflow tip: Track which FAQs trigger most - if "parking" comes up often, add parking info to all messages.
7

Orthodontic Progress Updates

Campaign Pro $99

Keep braces patients motivated with monthly progress updates. Show them how far they've come and remind about next adjustment.

CAMPAIGN: Braces Progress
TARGET: Contacts tagged "braces-patient"
TRIGGER: Monthly on braces_start_date anniversary
MESSAGE: Progress timeline + percentage + next appointment
INCLUDE: Rubber band reminder, oral hygiene tips
FOLLOW-UP: Appointment confirmation for adjustment
TRACK: Treatment adherence, missed adjustments
How it works: Visual timeline shows clear progress - motivates patients to continue. Percentage complete makes it tangible. Progress photos offer incentive to visit. Rubber band reminder improves treatment outcomes. Regular communication reduces drop-out rate from 20% to 5%.

Workflow tip: Send special celebration message at 50% and 100% completion with discount on retainers.
8

Smart Review Collection

Sequence Starter+ $29

Collect Google reviews automatically after successful treatments. Happy patients directed to Google, concerns handled privately.

SEQUENCE: Review Collection
TRIGGER: Tag "visit-completed" added
HOUR +4: Send rating request (1-5 scale)
IF RATING = 4 or 5:
  - Send Google review link
  - Send 10% discount code
  - Tag "review-requested"
IF RATING = 1, 2, or 3:
  - Ask what went wrong (multiple choice)
  - Alert clinic manager
  - Send apology + offer to resolve
  - Tag "needs-attention"
How it works: 4-hour delay while experience fresh but not rushed. Simple 1-5 rating gets high response. Happy patients (4-5) directed to Google with discount incentive. Unhappy patients (1-3) get private resolution before they post public review. Grows your Google presence from 50 to 500+ reviews in a year.

Workflow tip: Only request reviews after routine successful treatments, not complex multi-sitting procedures.
9

Birthday & Special Offers

Campaign Pro $99

Celebrate patient birthdays with special offers and run seasonal campaigns. Stay top-of-mind for dental needs.

CAMPAIGN: Birthday Wishes
TARGET: Contacts where birthday = today
MESSAGE: Birthday greeting + free whitening offer
VALID: 30 days from birthday
TRACK: Redemption rate, upsell to other treatments
---
CAMPAIGN: Wedding Season
TARGET: Contacts aged 25-35
MESSAGE: Bridal smile package (whitening + cleaning)
TIMING: Nov-Feb and May-Jun (wedding seasons)
DISCOUNT: Package deal ยฃ960 (worth Rs.18,000)
How it works: Birthday campaigns feel personal and special. Free whitening has high perceived value but relatively low cost for clinic. Gets patients back through the door, where you can recommend other treatments. Wedding season targeting captures major life events. 20-30% of birthday recipients redeem offer.

Workflow tip: Collect birthdays during first appointment - make it part of patient intake form.
10

Dental Emergency Handler

Rule Starter+ $29

Handle dental emergencies 24/7 with immediate guidance and priority booking. Build trust and potentially save teeth.

TRIGGER: Message contains "emergency" OR "broken" OR "severe pain" OR "bleeding"
ACTION: Send emergency triage (A-F menu)
THEN: Based on response, send specific guidance:
  - Knocked out tooth: 30-min window instructions
  - Severe pain: Pain management + urgent slot
  - Bleeding: Stop bleeding steps + when to come
  - Swelling: Warning signs + urgent care
THEN: Alert dentist on call via SMS
THEN: Tag "emergency-patient" for priority follow-up
How it works: Quick categorization gets them right help. Knocked-out tooth guidance can literally save the tooth if acted on fast. Urgency messaging drives immediate action. "Clearing a slot" shows you care. Dentist alert ensures they're ready when patient arrives. Builds massive trust and loyalty.

Workflow tip: Keep emergency rule active 24/7 - dental emergencies don't follow office hours.
