Lead follow-up sequence for dentists
Calls go unanswered while the front desk is checking someone in. For dental practices that's a common story, and it's what the lead follow-up flow is for. Polite, spaced follow-ups for leads who went quiet, stopping as soon as they reply.
Why dental practices ask for this
Calls go unanswered while the front desk is checking someone in. It sounds small, but for dental practices it repeats every week. The lead follow-up flow takes it over.
What it looks like in practice
Picture a family dental office with three hygienists and a busy front desk. A patient asked for information two weeks ago and went quiet. They get a short follow-up after three days and another a week later with something useful. On the second message they reply, the sequence stops and you're notified.
How it works for dentists
Once the lead follow-up flow is running for a family dental office with three hygienists and a busy front desk, this is the sequence.
- A lead in your CRM has had no reply.
- A short follow-up goes out after a few days.
- Further messages are spaced out and vary in content.
- Any reply stops the sequence and alerts you.
- Cold leads are tagged for later.

Questions from dental practices
Does the lead follow-up flow work with Gmail?
Often, yes. Before building the lead follow-up flow I check your Gmail account and plan, because some features depend on API access. If there's a gap for your dental setup, you'll know before you pay anything.
How is patient data handled?
For the lead follow-up flow, data stays in your own accounts where possible, and each step only gets the details it needs. We go through your rules, such as HIPAA or GDPR, before I build anything, and confirm the setup with your compliance adviser if you have one.
What happens if something breaks?
The lead follow-up flow sends you an alert when a step fails, so it never fails quietly in the middle of a busy week. You can fix small things with the notes I leave, or add the care plan at $49 a month and I'll handle it.
