Appointment Booking AI · Illinois
Appointment Booking AI for Illinois Dental Practices
Conversational booking that reads live PMS availability and writes real appointments — with the right type, provider and duration. Deployed across Chicago, Aurora, Naperville and the rest of Illinois.
Q4 insurance-benefit resets create a call spike Chicago front desks cannot flex to meet. That is the local context a appointment booking AI has to work inside.
The write is atomic, so two simultaneous callers cannot claim the same slot, and every booking produces an immediate SMS confirmation plus a reminder sequence you control.
Illinois BIPA governs biometric data. Wavez does not create voiceprints or biometric identifiers, and dental records remain under the HIPAA BAA.
What changes in the first month
Correct appointment types
A new-patient exam is not booked into a 20-minute recall slot.
Provider and operatory aware
Bookings respect who can do what, and where.
Atomic writes
No double-booking, even under simultaneous calls.
Reminder sequences built in
Confirmation, 72-hour and 24-hour reminders reduce no-shows measurably.

Running a appointment booking AI in Illinois
Wavez follows your local clock. Greeting, quiet hours, escalation windows and reminder timing are all set to Illinois time, so a 7am caller and an 11pm caller each get the right treatment.
Coverage is identical statewide — Chicago, Aurora, Naperville, Rockford, Springfield and every smaller community in between run the same configuration, because the software attaches to your phone number rather than to a location.
- Local Illinois hours and quiet-hour rules
- Signed BAA before any patient data is processed
- Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, Curve and Dolphin supported
- English and Spanish handling included
- Flat monthly pricing with no after-hours surcharge
