The fastest growing Dental Appointment booking software

I was at a mid-sized dental clinic outside Philly last month. Not fancy. But every patient was filling a short form before picking a time. Not after—before. It’s becoming normal. According to the 2025 Global Scheduling Experience Report by Lunacal, 62% of clinics using pre-booking questions say it directly improved appointment outcomes. One hygienist told me they started asking patients about anxiety levels before checkups—and it cut cancellations by a third. I’ve seen more clinics ditch the standard “book and forget” approach. Now they’re layering reminders. Text. Email. One practice in Austin even A/B tested both and saw a 35% drop in no-shows when both channels were used together. That’s not small. Neither is time. 44% of group practices using round-robin features said they saved over 4 hours weekly on admin. Not everyone’s there yet, though. 9% of clinics still do everything manually. Paper logs. Staff calls. No dental clinic booking software in sight. And here’s the twist—some of them are doing just fine. Because they personalize every interaction. One assistant said, “We don’t need tech. We need attention.” But for most, a modern doctor appointment booking software setup is saving their staff from burnout. A few are even experimenting with features I usually associate with a psychologist appointment booking software—like letting patients watch a 1-minute intro video before they book. Not common yet, but it’s working. One solo dentist told me, “Patients walk in like they already know me.”
