3. Description of Services
MatchMyDentist is a proprietary, AI-enabled platform designed to facilitate personalized introductions between individuals seeking dental care (“Patients”) and independently licensed dental providers (“Providers”) based on mutual compatibility and preferences.
3.1 Technology-Driven Matching
The process begins when a Patient completes a confidential Prospective Patient Profile. This profile collects information such as treatment goals, dental history, location, budget, insurance status, availability, and provider preferences. Our algorithm uses this data to identify a single compatible Provider from our closed network.
Patients do not browse Providers, and Providers do not pay for visibility, advertising, or placement in the match process.
3.2 Anonymized Review and Mutual Acceptance
Providers are shown anonymized Patient profiles. If a Provider chooses to accept a proposed match, they submit a personalized message for the Patient to review. Only after the Patient accepts the match is the Provider’s identity disclosed.
If both parties accept the match, the Patient’s contact information is released to the Provider. At that point, the match is considered complete and MatchMyDentist’s involvement ends.
3.3 No Clinical Role
MatchMyDentist does not provide dental services, clinical advice, or treatment recommendations. We are not a dental provider or referral agency and are not involved in appointment scheduling or medical decision-making. All clinical matters, including diagnosis, treatment, and communication, are managed independently between the Patient and Provider after a match is accepted.
3.4 Provider Fees (Patients Not Charged)
Use of the Platform is completely free for Patients. Providers may pay a fixed Platform Access Fee only after a match is completed and accepted by both parties. This fee is for access to the Platform’s technology and infrastructure and is not tied to treatment value, patient volume, or outcomes.
3.5 No Guarantee of Match or Outcome
While the Platform is designed to support successful introductions, MatchMyDentist cannot guarantee that:
-
A match will be made
-
A Patient or Provider will accept a proposed match
-
An appointment will occur or be fulfilled
-
Any treatment will take place or meet expectations
All interactions after the match occur independently of the Platform.
4. Eligibility & Account Use

5.1 Provide Accurate Information
You agree to provide truthful, complete, and current information when completing your Prospective Patient Profile, registering an account, or otherwise interacting with the Services. You acknowledge that the quality and relevance of your match depends on the accuracy of the information you submit.

5.5 No Commercial or Unauthorized Use
You may not resell, sublicense, or use the Platform for commercial gain without our written permission. Use of the Platform to coordinate or manage multiple patients (e.g., as a broker or agency) is prohibited unless explicitly authorized.
6. Provider Matching & Engagement
MatchMyDentist facilitates personalized, one-to-one introductions between Patients and Providers using a closed, compatibility-based matching process. The Platform does not offer a public directory or allow Patients to browse or choose Providers.
6.1 Patient Profile Submission
To initiate matching, Patients complete a Prospective Patient Profile that includes relevant information such as:
-
Dental concerns and treatment goals
-
Availability, urgency, and location preferences
-
Budget and insurance status
-
Provider characteristics or preferences
Patients are solely responsible for the completeness and accuracy of their submitted profile. MatchMyDentist does not verify or validate Patient-submitted data.
6.2 Algorithmic Match Generation
Using proprietary AI, the Platform evaluates profile compatibility and selects a single Provider based on factors such as treatment scope, logistics, philosophy, and Patient-stated preferences. Providers do not pay for visibility and are not ranked, prioritized, or promoted within the system.
6.3 Anonymized Profile Review
Providers receive an anonymized version of the Patient’s profile. If interested, the Provider may accept the match and must submit a personalized introductory message. While an AI-generated draft may be offered, the final message is the sole responsibility of the Provider. MatchMyDentist does not edit or endorse any message content.
6.4 Match Completion
If the Patient accepts the match, the Provider is granted access to the Patient’s contact details. At this point, the match is considered complete and all further communication and care occur outside the Platform.
6.5 No Guarantees
MatchMyDentist does not guarantee:
-
That a match will be made
-
That either party will accept the proposed match
-
That an appointment or treatment will occur
All participation is voluntary, and either party may decline a match without penalty.
7. Communications & Notifications
MatchMyDentist communicates with Patients solely to support the match process. We do not send promotional messages, schedule appointments, or engage in clinical correspondence.

By using the Platform, you agree to receive email communications necessary to facilitate your match, including:
-
Notification of a proposed Provider match
-
The Provider’s introductory message and credentials
-
Confirmation of match completion
-
Optional follow-up to confirm contact success
All communications are system-generated and transactional in nature.
7.2 No Phone or Text Communication
MatchMyDentist does not contact Patients by phone, SMS, or messaging apps. We will never request sensitive information via phone call or text.
7.3 Responsibility for Contact Details
You are responsible for keeping your email address current. We are not responsible for missed notifications due to spam filters, outdated email addresses, or blocked messages.
8. Provider Fees & Payment Terms
8.1 No Cost to Patients
The MatchMyDentist Platform is completely free for Patients. You will not be charged to submit a profile, receive a match, or view a Provider’s message.
8.2 Flat Access Fee for Providers
The Platform Access Fee is a fixed administrative fee charged for the processing of anonymized data and the use of the proprietary matching algorithm. This fee becomes due only upon the successful completion of a Mutual Match, representing the Fair Market Value of the technology services rendered. The fee is not a commission, is not based on the volume or value of any subsequent dental treatment, and is charged regardless of whether clinical care is ever provided.
MatchMyDentist does not sell leads, promote Providers based on payment, or receive any compensation related to dental services rendered.
8.3 No Refunds
Platform Access Fees paid by Providers are non-refundable, including in cases where:
-
A Patient cancels or no-shows
-
No treatment occurs or is declined
-
Communication is unsuccessful post-match
As a Patient, you are never responsible for any portion of this fee.
9. No Clinical Role or Referral Relationship
MatchMyDentist is a technology service, not a dental provider or referral agency. We do not participate in the clinical aspects of your care.
9.1 No Dental Advice or Diagnosis
We do not provide:
-
Clinical opinions or second opinions
-
Treatment plans or recommendations
-
Scheduling assistance or emergency support
All decisions about your care are made independently between you and your selected Provider.
9.2 No Endorsement or Recommendation
MatchMyDentist does not recommend or endorse any specific Provider, treatment, or service. Matches are generated using algorithmic compatibility only. A match does not imply quality assurance, prioritization, or suitability.
9.3 Provider Responsibility
Independent Provider Responsibility
Each Provider is solely responsible for their conduct, communications, treatment, and compliance with applicable laws and professional standards. MatchMyDentist assumes no responsibility for the acts, omissions, or services of any Provider listed on the Platform.
MatchMyDentist does not monitor, supervise, or participate in any care decisions and assumes no liability for outcomes of any Patient–Provider interaction.
9.4 No Duty to Monitor; Right to Remove
MatchMyDentist does not monitor Provider conduct or verify ongoing compliance. However, we reserve the right to suspend or remove a Provider from the Platform at any time in our sole discretion, including upon notice of licensing issues, criminal activity, or patient complaints.
9.5 No Appointment Management or Billing
MatchMyDentist does not schedule appointments, process payments, verify insurance, or coordinate treatment. Once a match is accepted by both parties, all further interaction occurs independently between the Patient and Provider outside of the Platform.
9.6 No Provider Browsing or Search Functionality
Patients do not browse, select, or view Providers prior to a match. Matches are generated through automated algorithmic evaluation based on compatibility and patient-stated preferences. The Platform does not offer provider ratings, rankings, reviews, or search functionality.
10. Privacy & Anonymity
MatchMyDentist is committed to protecting your identity and personal information throughout the match process.

Dental goals, treatment concerns, and preferences
-
Budget, insurance status, and availability
-
General background and logistics
Your name and contact details are never disclosed until you accept the match.
