You know these struggles

The no-show patient costs you twice

An hour blocked for a root canal, the assistant ready, the tray sterilized. The patient doesn't show. You lose the treatment, and the patient who was in pain would have taken that slot instantly. In a dental practice, every absence costs you twice.

The 6-month recall nobody sends

Everyone knows a cleaning is due every 6 months. Nobody does it, because nobody thinks about it. Your files hold hundreds of patients who should come back this quarter, and who will only return the day something hurts.

"How much is a cleaning?" between two patients

Cleaning, whitening, extraction, crown: pricing questions come in all day, by phone or at the counter. Your assistant repeats the same fee for the tenth time while the waiting room watches her.

Treatment plans abandoned midway

Three sessions planned, only one done. The patient postpones the second, forgets the third, and comes back a year later with a tooth that can no longer be saved. Without follow-up between sessions, long treatments evaporate.

What Fiitsa changes for you

Appointments by treatment type, with the right duration

Services et réservations

Check-up 20 minutes, cleaning 45 minutes, root canal 90 minutes: each treatment blocks the right duration in your schedule. The patient picks, sees real slots and books. No more days where two long treatments end up crammed into the same slot.

Mobile Money deposit on long treatments

Paiements WhatsApp

For a crown or a whitening, the appointment is confirmed after a deposit via Orange Money, MTN MoMo or Wave, deducted from the treatment price. The patient who put down 10,000 FCFA doesn't vanish. Your chair never works for nothing again.

Automatic cleaning reminder every 6 months

Automatisation

Six months after their last visit, every patient receives: "It's been 6 months since your last cleaning. Shall we find you a slot?". One message, one button, and your calendar fills up with patients you already had. Your patient base becomes your best channel.

New patient form completed before the first visit

Formulaires WhatsApp

Contact details, declared allergies, emergency contact: the new patient fills in their form on WhatsApp before coming in. They arrive, everything is ready, and the consultation starts on time instead of starting with paperwork.

Your customer's journey, for real

    He books tomorrow 11am, gets the address, the consultation fee and a note to bring any previous X-rays if he has them

  4. 4

    That same morning, an automatic reminder at 8am; he confirms with one tap and arrives on time

  5. 5

    The diagnosis comes in: two sessions to treat the cavity. He pays the deposit for the first one via Wave, right in the chat

Frequently asked questions

Does my patients' information stay confidential?

Yes. Conversations go through the official WhatsApp Business API, end-to-end encrypted, and the flows never ask for medical details: the patient picks an appointment type, not a diagnosis. What they tell you in the chair stays in your practice and your patient record, not in a chatbot.

Isn't asking for a deposit awkward for a dental practice?

Not when it's framed well. The deposit only applies to long treatments and is deducted from the total price: the patient doesn't pay more, they pay earlier. The assistant states it calmly at booking time, with the reason: securing their slot. Serious patients understand, and they're the ones you want in your chair.

How are dental emergencies handled?

An "emergency" reason exists in the menu, and it's treated differently: the assistant shows the very first slots of the day, notifies you immediately, and if the practice is closed, it shares the instructions and emergency contacts you've defined. A patient in pain should never wait until tomorrow for a simple answer.

Can I track multi-session treatment plans?

Yes. Every patient has a record with their appointment history. At the end of a session, you schedule the follow-up for the next one: if the patient hasn't rebooked within 10 days, they get a message. That's the difference between a completed treatment and a tooth lost a year later.

Can a patient request a quote for whitening or a prosthesis?

Yes. The assistant gives the base prices you've set, and for treatments that depend on an exam, it says so honestly and offers a consultation appointment. The patient knows what to expect, and you never commit to a price without seeing the tooth.

Will my patients really come back thanks to the 6-month reminder?

A portion of them, yes, and that's already huge. If your file holds 400 patients and 15% respond to the reminder, that's 60 cleanings that would never have happened. The message goes out on its own, at the right time for each patient. The cost of the operation: zero effort on your side.
