AI receptionist for Dentrix practices

What Clara solves for you

Your Dentrix schedule has openings — patients just can't reach them after hours.

Most dental site visits happen evenings and weekends, when your front desk is closed and the open chairs in Dentrix sit empty. Clara reads your live Dentrix availability and books the visit right then, so a prospective patient schedules instead of clicking back to Google and calling the next practice.

Dentrix runs on the office computers, so your website can't book into it on its own.

Dentrix is on-premise software, and a plain website form has no way to see your real schedule or write to it. Clara bridges that gap through a secure NexHealth connection: you install a small connector once, and from then on Clara reads live openings and writes appointments straight into Dentrix — with no NexHealth account for your team to sign up for or manage.

Reschedules and cancellations tie up the front desk.

Every "can I move my appointment?" is another interruption your team has to stop and handle. Clara lets patients reschedule or cancel in the chat and updates Dentrix through the same secure connection, so the change is already reflected when your team opens the schedule.

How Clara fits your business

Add Clara to your website and connect it to Dentrix through NexHealth. Because Dentrix runs on your office computers, a small connector installs on the machine that hosts it — it takes about 15 minutes, and there is no NexHealth account for your practice to create or maintain. Once it's running, Clara reads your real availability, providers, and appointment types straight from Dentrix.

You hear her on a live preview tuned to your practice. If she sounds right, you embed one <script> tag on your site — it works on every common dental-practice CMS. Every appointment she books, reschedules, or cancels is written into Dentrix through the secure NexHealth connection, and every contact she captures is emailed to your office in real time.

Pricing is flat per practice — $49/mo for text-only chat or $99/mo for the voice tier where Clara speaks her replies inside the widget. No per-seat charges, no per-conversation fees.

Frequently asked questions

Does Clara book appointments into Dentrix?

Yes. Clara reads your live Dentrix availability and writes the appointment into your schedule through a secure NexHealth connection, so your front desk sees it immediately with no re-typing. She can reschedule and cancel appointments the same way.

Do we need a NexHealth account to use Clara with Dentrix?

No. Because Dentrix is on-premise, Clara books into it through NexHealth, but there is no NexHealth account for you to sign up for or manage. You install a small connector on the computer that hosts Dentrix — about 15 minutes — and Clara handles the rest.

Can patients reschedule or cancel their own appointments?

Yes. A patient can reschedule or cancel right in the chat, and Clara updates Dentrix through the secure NexHealth connection, so the change is reflected in your schedule without anyone on your team picking up the phone.

What patient information does Clara access in Dentrix?

Only what scheduling needs. Clara reads open appointment times and writes the appointment; when a new patient books, it saves the booking details they type. It does not read clinical charts, treatment history, or account balances.
