In short

How do I recall overdue periodontal maintenance patients automatically?

Every morning, WebRun opens Open Dental and runs the Recall List filtered to the Perio recall type for patients who are due or overdue. It drafts a caring maintenance reminder to each in Gmail, explaining why staying on schedule matters, leaves the drafts unsent for the front desk, and sends the team a Telegram overdue count.

  • Overdue perio patients surface every morning instead of slipping the schedule
  • Each reminder is drafted and waiting, so the front desk just reviews and sends
  • Maintenance intervals stay on track, protecting gum health and recare production

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it message patients without me?

No. WebRun only drafts each maintenance reminder in Gmail and leaves it unsent. Your front desk reads every message and clicks send, so nothing reaches a patient until a person approves it first.

How does it know which patients are perio?

It runs the Recall List in Open Dental filtered to the Perio recall type, which is a primary recall type distinct from Prophy, and pulls the patients whose maintenance visit is due or past due.

Can it match our practice's tone?

Yes. Give WebRun a sample reminder or a few notes on tone and it drafts each message in your voice, explaining gently why staying on schedule protects gum health and offering an easy way to book.

Put this on autopilot.
