About

We’re Toothy.ai. We’re building AI agents for dental practices that handle everything related to patient insurance. The average dental clinic spends over 160 hours a month on insurance tasks like verifying patient policies, billing, and claims processing. Our AI agents automate this entire workflow—including making insurance calls with voice AI—saving clinics time, reducing costs, and ensuring faster reimbursements.

Our AI agents automate insurance verifications, claims filing, payment posting (including checks), denials, and follow-ups.

Toothy.ai builds HIPAA-compliant AI agents that automate the dental revenue cycle management (RCM), including insurance verification, claim creation and submission, denial correction, resubmission, and payment posting. The first two agents aim to replace back-office RCM tasks, claimed to save 160+ hours per month and boost revenue 5-10% for dental practices.
