Leyoxa / FAQ
What is dental AI software?

Dental AI software uses AI agents to automate parts of running a dental practice — answering calls and booking patients (voice agents), engaging patients between visits (HIPAA-compliant patient apps), generating SEO and marketing content, and reading practice data to surface actions. The best dental AI software integrates directly with a clinic's practice management system like Open Dental or Dentrix.

See Leyoxa's dental AI software overview for the full picture.

What is a dental AI voice agent and how does it work?

A dental AI voice agent answers a clinic's inbound phone calls using a natural-language AI. It greets the caller, captures intent, books or reschedules appointments directly in Open Dental or Dentrix, handles insurance questions, and hands off to staff with a structured summary.

Leyoxa's voice agent for DDS Marketing runs 24/7 and writes real bookings into the live PMS schedule — not voicemails, not callbacks.

What is HIPAA-compliant dental software?

HIPAA-compliant dental software supports a covered entity in meeting the HIPAA Security and Privacy Rules: a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA), encryption in transit and at rest, audit logs on every PHI read and write, per-clinic data isolation, and patient-rights workflows.

Leyoxa's HIPAA-aligned stack is what powers SmileLink and the DDS Marketing AI suite. See the engineering checklist for the detail.

How does AI dental scheduling work with Open Dental?

Our AI dental scheduling engine syncs availability from Open Dental into a HIPAA-aligned warehouse, matches a patient's request against live capacity windows (provider preference, operatory, treatment type, urgency), then writes the confirmed booking back through an idempotent queue.

Dentrix is integrated via a local bridge on a clinic-controlled workstation. The same engine powers the voice agent, the SmileLink patient app, and Emergclinic on-demand matching. Read the full integration guide.

Is Leyoxa a dental AI company we can work with?

Yes — Leyoxa is a dental AI software company that builds production AI products with healthcare operators across North America. Leyoxa is a Texas LLC, and its founder is based in Toronto. We co-build with people who have distribution and conviction. The model is equity, revenue share, or hybrid retainer + equity — not flat-fee development.

What did Leyoxa build for DDS Marketing?

Leyoxa partnered with DDS Marketing — a Miami dental agency managing $130M+ in client ad spend — to design and build Praxis, a platform of six connected AI agents:

  • Voice Agent — picks up every call 24/7, books and reschedules appointments, answers insurance questions, routes to staff when needed.
  • GEO / SEO — improves visibility across Google and AI answers.
  • Smile — visualizes potential treatment outcomes.
  • Executive Assistant — connects operational and financial data.
  • Reputation — manages listings and review workflows.
  • Call Coaching — grades calls and gives actionable feedback.

All six are presented together in the live Praxis platform. Read the full case study →

How does Leyoxa structure partnerships?

Depending on the project, we structure as equity partners, revenue share, or hybrid retainer plus equity. Flat-fee builds for spec are not how we operate. The fit is right when you have an existing dental or healthcare network, real conviction in the problem, and clarity on what you bring vs. what you need from us.

Can you integrate with our current PMS or EHR?

Yes. We've shipped against OpenDental, Dentrix, NexHealth, FuzeRx, OpenLoop, Twilio, OpenAI Realtime, and ElevenLabs in production. Healthcare-grade integration plumbing is where most AI products skip — we don't.

Which clinics are a fit for SmileLink?

SmileLink is designed for dental, cosmetic, and multi-provider clinics that want a patient-first mobile experience plus a clean operations dashboard. iOS, Android, and a clinic web dashboard.

How fast can we launch?

Most voice agents launch in weeks. Mobile apps and dashboards follow a phased rollout with early pilot clinics within 6 to 10 weeks.

Is patient data secure and compliant?

We design for HIPAA and PHIPA alignment, using encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access controls, and audit trails across the stack. Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) are available for covered entities upon request.

Who is Leyoxa not the right partner for?

We're not the right partner if you're looking for a flat-fee dev shop, or if you're still validating whether the problem exists. We co-build with operators who already have distribution and conviction — we don't write your business plan.

What does ongoing support look like?

We stay technical end-to-end on the ventures we ship: production monitoring, ongoing iteration, and integration plumbing maintenance. We're co-builders, not contractors. The engineer who built it is the engineer who answers your support emails.

How do I get started?

Book a 30-minute discovery call. We'll map the operator's distribution, the patient workflow, and what part of the build is yours vs. ours. No slides — just the problem and the systems already in play.
