AI Voice Receptionist for Dental Clinic

3 weeks 5.0/5.0

AI voice receptionist for dental clinics built on Vapi and n8n. Answers every call 24/7, books appointments, handles rescheduling and cancellations via live Google Calendar integration.

The Problem

The dental clinic was missing calls during lunch breaks, after hours, and busy periods — leading to lost patients and scheduling gaps. The receptionist was spending the majority of their day on routine calls (booking, rescheduling, cancellations) instead of focusing on in-office patient experience. Voicemail was unreliable — patients rarely left messages and simply called a competitor instead.

The Solution

Built an AI voice receptionist on Vapi that picks up every call instantly — 24/7, no hold music, no voicemail. The AI handles the complete booking flow: checks if the caller is an existing patient, looks up available time slots via Google Calendar, books the appointment, and confirms all details verbally. For rescheduling and cancellations, it looks up the existing booking and handles the change. For general questions, it pulls from a custom knowledge base covering services, pricing policy, and clinic information.

How It Works

1

Patient calls the clinic → Vapi AI picks up instantly with a professional greeting

2

AI identifies call intent: new booking, reschedule, cancel, or general question

3

For bookings: asks patient name, service type, preferred date and time

4

n8n webhook checks if caller is an existing patient via CRM lookup

5

If new patient → creates a CRM record automatically

6

Google Calendar API checks real-time availability for the requested slot

7

Appointment is created in Google Calendar with all patient details

8

AI confirms the booking verbally: service, date, time, and any prep instructions

9

For FAQ questions: AI searches a custom knowledge base and responds naturally
