Let Ira catch the rest. ====================================================== Savvy desk phones connect physical SIP phones to your AI receptionist workflow. Your front desk phones ring for live calls, known patients can show by name, and Ira automatically answers when your team cannot. Fan-out ringing Known caller display AI fallback on missed calls Outbound practice caller ID [ Book a desk phone demo ](https://savvyagents.ai/meeting-with-ai-dental-agent) [ See the call flow ](#call-flow) HIPAA-conscious workflow Configured in Savvy Incoming call Smile Dental Clinic Ringing Smile Dental Clinic (917) 555-0001 1 2 ABC 3 DEF 4 GHI 5 JKL 6 MNO 7 PQRS 8 TUV 9 WXYZ * 0 + \# Answer Decline Caller hears Normal ringback Route +1 (800) 555-1234 Primary Active desk phones Front Desk sip:t42p1@savvydesk Billing Department sip:t42p2@savvydesk Office Manager sip:t42p3@savvydesk First answer wins Other phones stop when one staff member picks up. 12 second safety net If no one answers, Ira takes the call. How it works A live call path your front desk can understand ------------------------------------------------- Desk phones are not a separate phone system bolted beside Savvy. They are part of the same call flow that decides when staff should answer and when Ira should take over. 1 ### Patient calls your practice number Your Savvy number or forwarded office line receives the call and checks which desk phones should ring for that number. 2 ### Every assigned desk phone rings Front desk, billing, or another operator phone can ring at the same time. The first person to answer gets the call. 3 ### Caller identity appears on the phone If the caller is already in Savvy, the phone can show the patient name. If not, your team still sees the incoming phone number. 4 ### Ira catches missed calls If the desk phones are busy, fail, or no one picks up, Savvy redirects the caller to Ira so the patient can still get help. Portal controls Simple controls for real office phones ---------------------------------------- In Savvy, an admin can add a desk phone, copy its SIP credentials, and decide which practice phone numbers ring that device. You can set a timeout from 5 to 120 seconds, then let Ira catch the call when the team is unavailable. ### Add each physical phone by name Use names your staff recognizes, such as Front Desk, Hygiene Hall, or Office Manager. ### Reveal credentials only when configuring Savvy stores SIP passwords encrypted and shows setup details only to authorized team admins. ### Create routing rules per phone number A main line, specialty line, or location line can ring the exact desk phones you assign. Savvy settings ### Desk Phone Management 3 active Desk Phones Add Desk Phone Name SIP Username Status Front Desk t12p1 Active Billing Department t12p2 Active Office Manager t12p3 Active Call Routing 30s timeout +1 (800) 555-1234 Primary practice line Front Desk Office Manager +1 (800) 555-9910 Billing line Billing Department What your team gets Desk phones with the call intelligence your old phone system never had ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ### Keep a familiar front-desk workflow Staff answer a normal ringing phone. No new call queue screen is required just to pick up a patient call. ### Route different numbers to different phones Connect your primary number, specialty lines, or location numbers to the right physical phones. ### Use one practice caller ID for outbound calls When a configured desk phone dials out, Savvy can present the team primary number as the caller ID. ### Send calls to Ira when needed Staff can use the AI shortcut, such as dialing \*9 or 900, when a call should move into the AI receptionist flow. ### Avoid dead air for patients Callers hear a normal ringback tone while the desk phones ring. If no one answers, Ira steps in. ### Manage setup inside Savvy Create SIP credentials, reveal setup details, and manage routing rules from the desk phone settings page. Why it matters Your phones should not decide whether a patient gets help ----------------------------------------------------------- A busy front desk should not mean missed new patients, voicemail loops, or abandoned recall calls. Desk Phones let staff answer when they are available, while Ira stays ready as the backup receptionist. First Staff get the first chance to answer the calls they should own. Then Ira The AI receptionist catches calls that would otherwise be missed. One number Patients keep calling the practice number they already know. One flow Human answering and AI fallback work together instead of competing. FAQ Questions practices ask before adding desk phones --------------------------------------------------- ### Do desk phones replace Ira? No. Desk phones give your staff the first chance to answer selected calls. Ira remains the safety net when the team is busy, away from the desk, or after hours. ### Can more than one phone ring at the same time? Yes. You can route a practice number to multiple active desk phones. Savvy fans the call out to each assigned phone, and the first answered phone takes the call. ### What does the patient experience? The patient calls your usual number and hears normal ringing. If a staff member answers, it feels like a standard phone call. If no one answers, Ira takes over instead of sending the patient into a dead end. ### What information does the team see? Savvy sends caller display information to the desk phone. Known callers can show by patient name, while unknown callers show the incoming phone number. ### What do we need to set this up? You need SIP-compatible desk phones, internet access for those devices, and a Savvy phone number or forwarded practice line. Savvy provides the SIP server, username, password, port, and routing controls. PMS Integrations Works with your existing systems ---------------------------------- Ira writes directly to your PMS. No new dashboards, no data entry. Scheduling and notes stay accurate automatically. ![Dentrix PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/dentrix-logo.png) [ ![Open Dental PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/open-dental-logo.png) Learn more ](/integrations/open-dental) ![Eaglesoft PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/eaglesoft-logo.png) ![Denticon PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/denticon-logo.png) ![Cloud 9 PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/cloud-9-logo-2.png) ![Curve Dental PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/curve-dental-logo.png) ![Dentrix Enterprise PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/dentrix-enterprise-logo.png) ![Dentrix Ascend PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/dentric-ascent-logo.png) ![Practice Works PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/practice-works-logo.png) ![Dolphin Imaging PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/dolphin-imaging-logo.png) ![OrthoTrac PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/new-orthotrac-logo.png) ![eClinicalWorks PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/eclinical-works-logo.png) ![ModMed PMS Integration](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/mod-med-logo-3.jpg) ![Epic EHR Integration - Coming Soon](https://savvyagents.ai/images/dental/integration-logos/epic-logo.png) Soon Bi-directional sync Real-time updates HIPAA compliant Zero maintenance [ See Open Dental integration details ](/integrations/open-dental) Built for dental front desks Ready to make desk phones part of your AI workflow? ----------------------------------------------------- See how Savvy routes live calls to your team first, then lets Ira answer automatically when the desk is busy.
