Using Voice in the Dental Intelligence Portal

Voice requires a subscription. Don't have Voice yet? Connect with our sales team to get a demo!

Note: The Engagement Module must be included in your Dental Intelligence subscription in order to utilize the Voice integration.

When your practice uses Voice, the native phone system from Dental Intelligence, patient calls, call summaries, and voicemails live right alongside your patient records in the Dental Intelligence portal. Your team can call a patient with one click, see an automatic summary of every call on the Patient Card, and get voicemail alerts in the Personal Assistant inbox, all without leaving Dental Intelligence.

What's included in this integration:

✓ Click-to-call from the Patient Card

✓ Automatic call summaries on the Patient Card, written back to your PMS

✓ Voicemail and missed call notifications in the Personal Assistant inbox

✓ A complete, unified communication history for every patient


How to Use Voice in the Dental Intelligence Portal

Map your team to start making calls

Each Dental Intelligence user that needs to place or answer calls should be mapped to a Voice extension. Set this up in Settings > Users. Open the user profile and click on the Integrations tab, then select the appropriate extension from the Voice user mapping dropdown.

Call patients from the Patient Card

Reach a patient about an appointment, treatment plan, or follow-up without dialing by hand. The patient's record stays on screen the whole time, so you have their context during the conversation.

How it works

  1. In Dental Intelligence, open the patient card by clicking on a patient's name

  2. Click on the phone icon next to the patient's phone number

  3. Choose the extension to initiate the call from

  4. Voice places the call. The Patient Card stays open so you can reference stats and notes while you talk

Why it matters

  • No switching screens to place a call

  • Patient context stays front and center

  • Outreach on busy days takes one click instead of several steps

See call history on the Patient Card

Every answered call, missed call, and voicemail is documented automatically in the Calls section of the Patient Card for each patient. When a call ends, Voice creates an AI-generated summary so your team can see what was discussed and what follow-up may be needed.

What gets captured automatically

  • A short AI-generated summary of the conversation

  • Call Sentiment Analysis (for both patient and practice) for every answered call

  • Call duration and timestamp

Why it matters

  • No need for manual call notes

  • A permanent and searchable record for compliance and continuity of care

  • One shared view of every patient interaction for your whole team

  • Call summaries also write back to your practice management system (PMS), so your records stay complete wherever your team looks

  • With Call Sentiment Analysis, spot unhappy patients quickly so you can follow up before a concern grows, see how your team comes across on the phone, and use real calls as coaching moments

Get voicemail alerts in the Personal Assistant inbox

Voicemails and missed calls appear in the Personal Assistant inbox, the same place your front desk already handles texts, emails, and patient forms. Click any Voice notification to read the transcript before you call back.

Why it matters

  • Your front desk stays in one system instead of toggling between Dental Intelligence and another VoIP portal

  • No voicemail falls through the cracks

  • Voicemail transcripts give your team the full picture before they call back

See every call in Communication Logs

Get a practice-wide view of every call in one place, instead of opening Patient Cards one at a time. The Calls tab in Communication Logs lists inbound and outbound calls for all patients, so your team can quickly see who called, who was missed, and who still needs a callback.

How it works

  1. In Dental Intelligence, select Communication Logs from the left menu

  2. Click the Calls tab

  3. Use Search patient to find a specific patient’s calls, or filter by Status, Patient sentiment, or Practice sentiment to narrow the list

  4. Click Summary on any answered call to read its AI-generated summary

What gets captured automatically

  • The patient’s name, or the caller’s phone number if it doesn’t match a patient record

  • Call status (answered or missed) and direction (inbound or outbound)

  • Call length for answered calls

  • Date and time of the call

  • The numbers the call came from and went to

  • An AI-generated summary for every answered call

  • Call Sentiment Analysis (for both patient and practice) for every answered call

Why it matters

  • Your front desk can work through missed calls from one list instead of checking patients one by one

  • Managers can see call activity across the whole practice at a glance

  • Sentiment filters make it easy to find patients who may need extra attention, so you can follow up before a concern grows

  • Practice sentiment shows how your team comes across on the phone and highlights calls to use for coaching

  • Calls from new or unknown numbers still show up, so no potential patient gets overlooked

  • Every call summary is one click away, without leaving Dental Intelligence
