for independent dental practices
The front desk that answers your patients in writing.
No phone line to install, no robot voice on the line. Marine Fruit reads every patient email in your own voice, answers the same day and books the visit.
A practice lives or dies on its front desk, and the front desk is one overloaded person.
Patient emails sit unanswered for hours or days. An enquiry that arrives at 7pm on Friday is cold by Monday.
Recall lists rot: patients who were due six months ago, and nobody has time to write to them. Balances owed go unmentioned because nobody enjoys writing that email either.
Reminders go out when someone remembers to send them. So chairs sit empty.
Three things that fit together, run for the practice.
Marine Fruit answers a patient’s actual question about price, insurance and availability, and closes it into a booking, instead of pushing them back to the phone.
Booking page
A public page showing the practice’s real availability, so a patient can see a genuine opening and take it.
Front desk
Every patient email is read and answered in the practice’s own voice, from its own prices and policies.
Recall and reminders
Patients overdue for a visit get a letter that reads like it came from their dentist. Reminders go out before every appointment, and balance reminders are plain, courteous, and point back to the practice’s own payment method.
Every morning the owner-dentist gets one digest: what was booked, what was asked, what needs a human.
Why a practice chooses Marine Fruit.
- over an AI voice receptionist
- Nothing to install, no phone system to touch, no synthetic voice talking to your patients. The risk of trying it is one afternoon, and the worst that happens is a draft you didn’t like.
- over a patient-communication suite
- Those tools send reminders on a schedule. Marine Fruit answers what a patient actually asked, and books the visit instead of sending them back to the phone.
- over hiring more front-desk hours
- $249 a month is a rounding error against a salary. It works at 2am on a Sunday, and it never leaves a recall list untouched for a year.
One plan, everything included.
No tiers, no trial, no usage billing, no negotiation. $249 a month, per practice location.
- the booking page
- the answered inbox
- reminders before every appointment
- recall for patients overdue
- balance reminders
- the morning digest
Marine Fruit handles patient names, contact details, appointment types and balances owed. It does not store clinical records, imaging or diagnoses, and it never handles patient money.
