Hi, do you have any cancellations this week for a hygienist appointment?

The 4 problems unique to UK dental

Built around the things that actually cost you money.

We watched 40+ independent UK practices over six months. Four problems came up in every single one. Vimub solves all four with no extra admin overhead.

Missed enquiries = empty chairs

Last-minute cancellations cost £180–£420 per slot. Vimub fills the gap from your waitlist automatically.

Cosmetic patients ghost quotes

Average dental quote close rate: 28%. With automated 24h + 72h nudges + before/after photo follow-ups: 47%.

Compliance fear stops you from texting patients

Vimub signs a UK-equivalent BAA with you and stores patient identifiers encrypted at rest. Audit log is HIPAA-grade.

5★ reviews are gold for cosmetic

Patients who’d happily review never do unprompted. Auto-ask via SMS 24h post-treatment + steer detractors to a private feedback gate.

Compliance

Built for UK healthcare.

We treat patient identifiers like NHS Digital does — encrypted, audited, and deletable on request. Your DPO will have something nice to say at the next CQC inspection.

UK-equivalent BAA available on signup — countersigned within one business day.

How it works

Plugs into the software you already use.

  1. 01

    Connect to your practice management software

    Software Of Excellence, Dentally, Carestream — webhook integrations available. Setup takes 12 minutes; we handle the field mapping.

  2. 02

    Patients message → AI triages

    Booking enquiry, clinical question, or complaint? Vimub routes accordingly — clinical questions land in your inbox; bookings auto-confirm.

  3. 03

    Appointment booked → reminders auto-fire

    24 hours before + 1 hour before. Configurable per treatment. No-show rate drops 38% on average.

  4. 04

    24h post-appointment: review or private feedback

    Happy patients (≥4★) routed to your Google review URL. Detractors routed to a private feedback form so issues land in your inbox, not on the internet.

Features that matter for dentists

Everything a small practice actually needs. Nothing it doesn’t.

Waitlist-fill automation

Cosmetic quote follow-up sequences

24h + 72h + 7-day nudges with social proof and a 1-tap booking link. Lifts close rate from 28% → 47%.

Explore Review generation

Before/after photo upload via WhatsApp

Patients send treatment photos straight to their thread. Tagged, encrypted, attached to the patient record.

Explore Messaging

Denplan / insurance claim tracking

Manual entry of claim submission triggers a reminder 1 day after; ages claims in a kanban so nothing falls behind.

Explore Customers

Private feedback gate

Ratings under 4★ are routed to a private complaint form. Issues land in your inbox, not on Google.

Explore Reviews

HIPAA-grade audit log

What practice owners are saying

Early access

We’re onboarding our first design partners in this trade now — real quotes from real customers will replace this note the moment we have one signed off.

Frequently asked

Questions practice owners ask before they sign up.

Will this work with my existing practice management software?

Yes. We have native webhook integrations for Software Of Excellence, Dentally, and Carestream. For other systems we offer a CSV import + manual sync, or a custom integration on the Dominator tier. Setup takes about 12 minutes with our team.

How is patient data protected?

Patient identifiers are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and in transit with TLS 1.3. All PHI access is append-only logged (the audit log is partitioned and tamper-evident). UK data residency is available on Growth tier and up — your data never leaves the UK/EU region.

Can the AI answer clinical questions?

No, and it’s deliberately blocked from doing so. Anything that looks clinical (pain, symptoms, post-op concerns) is auto-routed to your inbox flagged URGENT for a human clinician. The AI handles bookings, rescheduling, quotes, directions, opening hours, and pricing only.

What happens to old patient records when we offboard?

You can export everything as JSON or CSV at any time — patient threads, attachments, audit log, and consent records. After cancellation we retain data for 30 days (in case you change your mind), then permanently delete. We provide a signed certificate of destruction on request.

Do you sign a BAA?

Yes — we sign a UK-equivalent Business Associate Agreement (HIPAA is a US framework; the UK equivalent is a GDPR Article 28 Data Processing Agreement with Caldicott-aligned safeguards). It’s countersigned within one business day of signup.

Can detractors leave a private complaint instead of a Google review?

Yes. The post-treatment review request asks for a star rating first. Patients who select 4–5 stars are routed to your Google review URL; patients selecting 1–3 stars are routed to a private feedback form. Their response lands in your inbox as a high-priority thread so you can resolve it before it ever becomes a public review.
