Set Up My IntegrationConfirm your Open Dental setup
We confirm the details of your specific Open Dental configuration before connecting.
We connect and sync your data
Schedule, appointment types, and provider rules sync in real time, in both directions — nothing queued, nothing re-typed.
Go live without changing your number or workflow
Your Open Dental setup stays exactly as your team already runs it. Elva connects to what's there.
Built around how Open Dental practices actually run
After-hours and weekend calls get answered and booked, not routed to voicemail against a schedule no one can see.
Availability is checked live at the moment of the call, so a slot that just got booked can't get offered twice.
Overdue and reactivation patients get worked on a schedule, not whenever someone has a free afternoon.
Coverage continues through routine update windows instead of dropping to voicemail.
Patients reach Elva instantly; staff aren't the ones stuck waiting on hold to get an answer.
Calls, recall, insurance, billing, and scheduling all sync through the same real-time link — not a separate tool per feature.
Talk to Your Open Dental Data in Plain Language
Elva anything about your Open Dental data — what a patient owes, whether a plan covers a crown, which patients are overdue for recall — and it answers in plain language, reading straight from Open Dental. Anyone on the team can pull the number they need without running a report.

Contact UsFAQ
Does Elva integrate with Open Dental?
Yes. Elva is an "Authorized API Partner" that connects to Open Dental with real-time, two-way sync across calls, recall, insurance, billing, scheduling, and forms.
Does Open Dental have a native AI receptionist or automation built in?
No — Open Dental itself doesn't include these capabilities. Elva connects to your existing Open Dental system rather than requiring you to replace it.
Does this PMS integration work with my specific Open Dental setup?
Yes — Elva connects regardless of your specific configuration. We confirm the details during your demo.
Do I need to change my phone number or my Open Dental workflows?
No. Your number and your existing Open Dental setup stay the same.
What happens with a call or task that needs a person, not automation?
It's routed to your team following rules your practice sets, and you can adjust those rules at any time.
Which Elva module should I look at first?
That depends on where the gap is in your practice. Calls going unanswered → start with AI receptionist for Open Dental. Overdue patients not coming back → start with dental recall software. Claims and eligibility eating staff time → start with dental insurance eligibility verification.
