For UK dental practices
Your reception team can only be in one conversation at a time. Vocalenda answers the overflow and the out-of-hours calls, books patients straight into Google Calendar, and texts them a confirmation, from the same number they called.*

Booked: check-up, Mon 23 Mar, 2:30pm at Bright Dental. Need to change it? Just call this number back.
Don't take our word for it: call the demo line and book a fake appointment. The demo diary belongs to a barbershop, but the manner, the booking flow and the confirmation text are exactly what your patients would get.
Set up in minutes, not days
1
Google CalendarSign in with Google, and each practitioner connects their own calendar with one link. Vocalenda sees everyone's real availability.
2
Check-up and hygiene prices, opening hours, parking, your emergency arrangements. Ten minutes, once, and you can change it any time.
3
Forward the practice number, or hand out a new dedicated UK number. Overflow, lunchtimes and evenings get answered from that moment.
What it handles
Patients get an answer on the first ring, the diary fills itself, and anything clinical is taken as a message for the right person before the call ends. Reception keeps its attention on the patient standing in front of it.
Three calls answered in parallel while your team handles the desk. It checks real availability and books the check-up while the patient is still on the line.
“Can I get a check-up this week?”
Check-up · Thu 2:30pm
Booked while the desk was busy
When the recall letter lands, patients call after work. Vocalenda answers evenings, weekends and lunchtimes, so due patients book instead of drifting.
“Got a letter saying I’m due a check-up.”

Booked at 7:40pm, after close
It never guesses at clinical advice. Questions it shouldn't answer become messages on your dashboard, with the full transcript, before the patient hangs up.
“Is it normal to ache after a filling?”
Message for your clinical team
On your dashboard before the call ended
…and the rest of the shift
Check-up and hygiene prices answered word for word, exactly as you set them.
Finds the appointment, moves it, updates the right practitioner's calendar.
Every booking confirmed by text, so appointments actually get kept.
Recall letters get read after work. Now the phone answers then too.
Your emergency arrangements, said word for word, or the call transferred straight through.
“Mornings only.” “Nervous patient.” Noted once, used on the next call.
Full transcripts on your dashboard, plus a live view while the call happens.
Only the number that booked can move or cancel the appointment.
Patient asks for a person? It transfers the call to the desk.
Reception fully staffed today? Flip it off and calls ring the desk as usual.
The maths is short
A single new private patient is worth many multiples of £49, and every recall call that hits voicemail after 5pm is one at risk. Text confirmations cut did-not-attends too. If it books one patient a month you're ahead; most practices miss more calls than that in a week.
Pricing
No tiers to compare, no per-minute meter running while your caller decides between Tuesday and Thursday. £49 a month on the founding rate, locked for the first ten businesses, and you can leave whenever you like.
Try it free for 30 days first. If it doesn’t book you more work than it costs, don’t keep it.
£69£49/month
Everything included · cancel anytime
Founding rate for the first 10 businesses, locked while you stay subscribed. Then £69/month.
*Fair use: 500 call minutes a month - enough for around 250 bookings at a typical two-minute call.
An honest note
We won’t invent testimonials. Instead: the first three businesses willing to share their real numbers get 60 days free. And every founding business (the first ten) keeps the £49 rate for as long as they stay subscribed.

Questions
No, and it's built not to. Anything clinical becomes a polite “let me pass that to the team” and lands on your dashboard as a message with the full transcript, so the right person answers it. It sticks to appointments, prices, hours and the practical questions you set it up with.
