Congratulations to the 2026 Pre-Dental Scholarship Winners! 🎉

One of SmileSuite's core values is giving back to the profession that has given us so much.

That's why we were proud to partner with Dr. Eli, DMD to expand this year's Pre-Dental Scholarship, helping more future dentists pursue their dreams.

The scholarship helps students with ADEA AADSAS application fees, making the journey to dental school a little more accessible.

In previous years, the scholarship recognized five recipients. Thanks to SmileSuite's matching contribution, 11 future dentists received scholarships this year—the largest class of winners yet!

Congratulations to all eleven scholarship recipients. Your dedication, perseverance, and passion for dentistry inspire all of us.

A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Eli for creating this incredible scholarship and for everything he does to mentor future dental professionals.

We're grateful to Dr. Eli for allowing SmileSuite to be part of this year's scholarship and helping support the future leaders of our profession.

What happens when your referring dentist calls your office... and doesn't realize they're talking to SmileSuite?

Dr. Rochford recently shared a story with us that perfectly captures what SmileSuite is all about.

The wife of one of his referring dentists called the office to schedule a new patient appointment. After the call, she complimented Dr. Rochford on how wonderful "Hanna" had been.

There was just one problem...

Dr. Rochford doesn't have a Hanna on his team.

The call had actually been answered by Hanna, one of our SmileSuite agents.

To us, that's the ultimate compliment.

Our goal is simple: to become a true extension of your office.

We learn how your practice communicates, how you schedule patients, and how your team cares for every caller so the experience feels seamless from the very first hello.

When patients and even referring doctors can't tell the difference, we know we've represented your practice the way you deserve.

Thank you, Dr. Rochford, for sharing this story. And thank you, Hanna, for reminding us that the little moments often say the most.

💙 We don't answer calls for your practice. We answer calls as part of your practice.

Your First Hire Doesn't Have to Be an Employee

Starting a business means wearing a lot of hats.

You're the owner.

The salesperson.

The customer service team.

The receptionist.

The scheduler.

And somehow you're still expected to do the work that actually generates revenue.

The challenge is that every call matters.

Every lead matters.

And every missed opportunity can slow down your growth.

But hiring your first employee can easily cost $40,000 to $60,000+ per year once you factor in salary, payroll taxes, benefits, training, and management time.

For many startups and new practices, that simply isn't realistic.

That's why many growing businesses are turning to on-demand support before making their first administrative hire.

Imagine having a professional team available to:

📞 Answer incoming calls

📅 Schedule appointments

💬 Respond to new inquiries

📈 Follow up with leads

🌙 Support your customers evenings and weekends when you're busy running the business

The goal isn't just to save money.

It's to make sure opportunities don't slip through the cracks while you're building something great.

Sometimes your first employee doesn't need to be an employee at all.

What was the biggest challenge you faced when starting your business?

🏖️ You: On vacation.
📱 Your next customer: Ready to schedule.

The challenge isn't that customers stop looking when you're unavailable.

It's that they don't stop looking.

Research published by Harvard Business Review found that businesses that respond to an inquiry within one hour are nearly 7x more likely to qualify that lead than those that wait longer. Additionally, responding within 5 minutes can make you 21x more likely to qualify a lead compared to waiting 30 minutes.

When someone is ready to call, text, or submit a web inquiry, they're often reaching out to multiple businesses.

If they can't reach you, there's a good chance they'll move on to the next option.

The first office to respond usually wins.

Patients expect the same great experience every time they contact your practice.

That's why our team is focused on delivering professional, compassionate, and reliable communication with every call, every text, and every follow-up.

Thank you to Cam Hinton and Redemption Orthodontics for trusting SmileSuite to help support your patients and your growth.

💙 We Answer. We Engage. You Grow.

AAO attendees took on our “Beat the Bot” challenge this week… and let’s just say emotions were involved 🤖☎️😂

The goal sounded simple:
Navigate our intentionally frustrating automated phone system without losing your mind.

What actually happened:
❌ wrong buttons pressed
❌ people yelling “REPRESENTATIVE!”
❌ dramatic sighs
❌ accidental menu loops
❌ instant regret

A few survived. Barely.

It was all in good fun, but it also highlighted something we see every day… customers still value fast, human interaction when they contact a business.

That’s why at SmileSuite, we believe:
✅ Speed matters
✅ Human connection matters
✅ Follow-up matters

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and played along with us at AAO!

Now be honest…
What’s the MOST annoying thing a phone bot says? 👇😂

What an incredible week at AAO 2026!

We had such a great time reconnecting with longtime clients, meeting new practices from across the country, and having so many meaningful conversations throughout the event.

One of the biggest takeaways from this year’s meeting was simple:
people still value real human connection.

Our “Beat the Bot” challenge brought a lot of laughs and fun moments to the booth, but it also sparked great conversations about the importance of personal communication and patient experience in today’s world.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the SmileSuite booth, spent time with our team, and shared ideas with us throughout the week. We truly appreciate all of the support and are excited for what’s ahead.
