    Wavez AI Receptionist for Open Dental

    Native Open Dental API integration — book, reschedule, and log calls in real time.

    Open Dental's open API is one of the cleanest in dentistry, and Wavez uses it end-to-end. Availability is pulled live, appointments write with the correct provider, operatory, and procedure code, and every call becomes a searchable note on the patient record.

    Two-way sync via official Open Dental API

    We describe integration depth honestly — read-only, two-way sync, or full sync — so you know exactly what Wavez does with your Open Dental data.

    What "real time" means here: Uses Open Dental's REST API for live slot queries and immediate appointment writes. Because Open Dental exposes a first-party API, this is the most real-time integration we ship — no bridge server, no polling.

    What Wavez does in Open Dental

    • Pull real-time provider and operatory availability
    • Book new patients and returning patients into open slots
    • Reschedule and cancel appointments
    • Write call summary notes onto the patient record
    • Trigger recall follow-ups based on patient recall type

    What Wavez does not touch

    • Editing clinical treatment plans or chart entries
    • Running insurance eligibility or claims
    • Modifying provider schedules (Wavez only books into slots you make available)
