The Hygiene Revenue Engine: Automating Recalls That Actually Convert
Luis Fonseca
Founder, Selcor
Any practice consultant will tell you: the hygiene department is the engine of the dental practice. It maintains patient health for the long term and provides the diagnosis opportunities that drive restorative and cosmetic revenue.
Yet, most practices rely on passive "recall" systems: a postcard in the mail or a generic text message. These are easy to ignore. The result? Huge holes in the hygiene schedule and thousands of dollars in lost production every month.
Proactive, Not Passive
Selcor's Voice AI flips the script. Instead of waiting for the patient to call you, the AI calls the patient. But this isn't a "robocall" blast. It's a targeted, conversational outreach.
"Hi Jessica, this is the automated assistant for Dr. Miller. You're due for your cleaning next month. We have an opening on Tuesday the 12th at 4 PM. Would you like to grab that?"
By offering a specific, relevant time slot, the cognitive load on the patient is reduced. They just have to say "Yes."
Filling the White Space
The system connects directly to your Open Dental, Dentrix, or Eaglesoft schedule. It sees the holes in next week's schedule and specifically targets patients to fill them.
This solves the "last minute cancellation" problem dynamically. When a slot opens up tomorrow, the AI can survey a waitlist of patients who asked for sooner appointments and fill it within minutes.
The Engine Roars to Life
