Novi handles every step — from the first text to the confirmed booking. SJ Sarah Johnson 14 months overdue for hygiene Overdue Day 1 SMS sent "Hi Sarah, it's been a while! Dr. Smith's office has openings this week for a cleaning. Would you like me to find a time that works for you?" Day 3 Phone call Novi called Sarah. After a short conversation, she chose Thursday at 2:00 PM for a cleaning appointment. Appointment booked Appointment confirmed in Open Dental Thursday, 2:00 PM — Prophylaxis (D1110) with Dr. Smith Features What Novi does for your Open Dental practice -------------------------------------------- Every feature syncs directly with your Open Dental recall list — no exports, no spreadsheets, no manual work. ### Syncs Your Recall List Novi reads your Open Dental recall list automatically. Overdue patients are identified and queued for outreach without any manual work. ### Multi-Channel Outreach Text messages, phone calls, and emails — Novi reaches patients on the channel they actually respond to, in the right sequence. ### AI Conversations Novi does not just send reminders — it has real conversations. Patients can ask questions, request different times, and confirm on the spot. ### Books Directly When a patient says yes, Novi checks your Open Dental schedule for an available slot and books the appointment immediately. ### Reactivates Dormant Patients Patients who have not been in for 12, 18, even 24+ months get a personalized outreach sequence designed to bring them back. ### Tracks Results See exactly how many patients were contacted, how many responded, and how many booked — with revenue attribution for every campaign. Every overdue patient is revenue waiting to come back ----------------------------------------------------- The average dental practice has hundreds of patients who are overdue for hygiene, treatment, or recall visits. Each one represents $300 to $500 in production that simply is not happening because no one has time to follow up. Postcards get thrown away, generic reminder emails get ignored, and the recall list keeps growing. Novi changes that by running continuous, multi-channel outreach campaigns that feel personal. Patients receive a text that sounds like it came from your front desk, followed by a phone call from an AI that can answer questions and book appointments on the spot. Practices using Novi typically see a 32% lift in recall reactivation within the first 60 days — recovering tens of thousands in production that would otherwise be lost.

Novi syncs directly with your Open Dental recall list. It identifies patients who are past due based on their recall interval — whether that is 6 months for a cleaning or 12 months for a periodic exam. You do not need to export lists or upload spreadsheets. ### What does Novi say to patients? Novi sends personalized messages using your practice name and provider names. The tone is warm and conversational — not robotic. Patients often do not realize they are talking to an AI until they ask. You can customize the messaging to match your practice voice. ### Can patients book directly through Novi? Yes. When a patient responds and wants to schedule, Novi checks your Open Dental appointment book in real time, offers available slots, and books the appointment directly. The patient gets a confirmation, and the appointment appears in your schedule immediately. ### Does Novi work for patients who have been inactive for years? Yes. Novi has specific reactivation sequences for long-dormant patients — those who have been gone 12, 18, or 24+ months. The outreach is tailored to acknowledge the gap and make it easy to come back without guilt or pressure.
