Updated October 16, 2026.
ToothyAI is a dental-only service that automates the whole revenue cycle, verification included, using AI agents and human experts. Azops Dental does one thing: insurance verification, done right. Both offer unlimited verification plans, so the real question is scope, compliance, and how deep each one goes. Here is the breakdown.
Key takeaways
- ToothyAI runs AI agents across verification, claim creation and submission, and payment posting, with voice calls to insurers, human dental RCM experts in the loop, PMS write-back, an audit trail, SLAs, and dashboards.
- ToothyAI also offers an unlimited plan priced per provider, close to Azops Dental's flat fee for unlimited verifications, so price structure isn't where these two split.
- ToothyAI covers the full revenue cycle. Azops Dental focuses only on verification, with human QA on every single verification and the source materials kept behind each result.
- Azops Dental supports custom verification forms by specialty and lets you set when verifications run ahead of each appointment, and our proprietary connector writes the results straight into your dental software.
- Azops Dental is SOC 2 certified and HIPAA compliant.
What ToothyAI offers
ToothyAI is a dental-only automation service for the revenue cycle. It runs AI agents that handle verification, claim creation and submission, and payment posting, with voice calls to insurers and human dental RCM experts in the loop. It writes back to the PMS and gives you an audit trail, SLAs, and dashboards. If you want AI to automate the entire revenue cycle instead of just verification, that breadth is the real draw, and it's a strength.
Pricing and predictability
ToothyAI lists two pricing options, an unlimited plan priced per provider and a usage-based bundle, but it does not publish actual dollar figures for either. To get real numbers you have to book a demo. Any specific figures floating around for ToothyAI, such as a per-verification rate or a low monthly price, are not confirmed by the company and should not be treated as real.
ToothyAI's unlimited option is close to the flat-fee model Azops Dental uses, so on structure the two can line up, and that is worth saying plainly. The difference is transparency, and, if you pick their usage-based bundle instead, predictability, since a usage bundle moves with your volume.
Azops Dental publishes its pricing openly. It is a flat monthly fee based on your practice type, with unlimited patients and unlimited verifications. You can verify a patient once, or verify the same patient five times for different custom breakdowns, and the price stays exactly the same. Pricing starts at $325 per month, and you can see our exact transparent pricing here.
Where the two approaches differ
ToothyAI automates the full revenue cycle. Azops Dental goes all in on verification and nothing else. Azops Dental combines payer-portal access, requested fax benefits, an AI voice agent that calls the payer provider line, a human fallback, and human QA on every single verification, with the fax PDF, portal screenshots, and call transcript kept behind each result. Azops Dental also supports custom verification forms by specialty and one-off questions right from inside the appointment note. So you're choosing between full-cycle automation and a verification-only service with a human reviewing every result.
For example, a payer portal might show a $2,000 annual maximum while the carrier’s fax shows $1,500. Both fields contain an answer, but the answers disagree. Azops Dental compares available fax, portal and carrier-call information, flags the contradiction and brings it into a carrier call for clarification alongside missing information. Comparing populated values adds a safeguard against portal/fax inconsistencies that would otherwise pass through a missing-fields-only check.
Azops Dental supports up to 80 custom questions per form, covering the procedures and appointments the practice handles. This configured checklist is part of its managed verification workflow.
Dental software integrations and write-back
ToothyAI includes dental-software write-back within its broader verification and billing offering. The field mapping for a practice’s connector should be checked against Azops Dental’s detailed integration walkthroughs, which explain how the verification data is organized inside the dental software. Official documentation
Azops Dental supports 22 dental software systems, with custom end-to-end integrations that handle detailed verification information and organize it inside your practice's software:
- Frequency limitations and code-level coverage percentages
- Downgrades, deductibles, and annual or lifetime maximums
- Patient treatment and claim history
- Benefit breakdown PDFs and appointment notes
- Plan/group matching, duplicate prevention, and organized documentation
The supported systems are Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, CareStack, Curve Dental, Denticon, Dolphin, Ortho2, Tops (cloud), OrthoTrac, WinOMS, Cloud 9, PracticeWorks, SoftDent, Easy Dental, DentiMax, Oryx, TDO, tab32, iDentalSoft, DSN and XLDent.
Detailed integration walkthroughs show how Azops Dental organizes verification information in the supported dental software. The Open Dental connector, for example, uses the native two-way API for PDFs, notes and employer/group benefit tables. Field mappings depend on the system; a human reviewer checks every verification before delivery.

Azops Dental's pricing calculation formula
How Azops Dental's price is calculated
This is the pricing calculation formula for Azops Dental. Azops Dental is a flat monthly subscription priced by practice type. General, pediatric and perio, endodontic and oral surgery practices pay per treating provider they bill for: add up, for each billed provider, the number of them times the per-provider rate below. Orthodontic practices pay by monthly new-patient exam volume in flat tiers. Unlimited verifications for every patient are included, and there is never a per-verification fee.
Your price follows your practice type, not anyone's academic title. Only general, pediatric and perio practices bill for hygienists. Endodontic and oral surgery practices are billed on the doctor alone, and Azops Dental never charges for front-desk staff or technicians.
Benefit-table write-back is included in every rate below, where our proprietary connector writes the full benefit breakdown directly into your dental software. Those rates cover the primary plan for every new patient and every new plan. Two optional add-ons are priced separately: primary and secondary, which verifies up to two plans per patient, and unlimited eligibility, where we confirm eligibility for every appointment, new or existing, through payer portals and carrier calls rather than EDI.
For orthodontic practices the tier is set from a three-month rolling average of new-patient exams on monthly plans, and a six-month rolling average on yearly plans.
| Practice type and billed providers | Primary only | Secondary add-on | Eligibility add-on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orthodontics (by new-patient exams per month) | |||
| 1–35 exams/month | $325 | +$65 | +$65 |
| 36–60 exams/month | $490 | +$100 | +$130 |
| 61–90 exams/month | $650 | +$130 | +$130 |
| 91–140 exams/month | $845 | +$165 | +$130 |
| 141+ exams/month | Custom | Custom | Custom |
| General, Pediatric & Perio | |||
| Dentist | $325 | +$65 | +$40 |
| Dental hygienist | $65 | +$35 | +$20 |
| Endodontics | |||
| Endodontist | $550 | +$50 | +$50 |
| Oral Surgery | |||
| Oral & maxillofacial surgeon | $845 | +$65 | +$65 |
| Multi-specialty & DSO | |||
| Any mix of the above | Custom | Custom | Custom |
Example: a general, pediatric or perio practice with 3 dentists and 2 hygienists pays 3 × $325 + 2 × $65 = $1,105/month for primary plans. An orthodontic practice whose three-month rolling average falls in the 61–90 exam tier pays $650/month for primary plans. Endodontic and oral surgery practices are billed on the doctor alone. Start with a 10-day pilot with unlimited verifications. No yearly commitment.
