Underpaid by insurance?
We’ll catch it.
We check every insurance payment against what your contracts say you’re owed. When a payment comes in short, we flag it and file the appeal with the insurance company, so you get paid for the work you’ve already done.

The problem
You did the work. The payment came in short. Nobody noticed.
Every insurer pays against its own fee schedule, code by code. Payments come in a few dollars short here, a hundred there, and with thousands of lines a year, nobody has time to check each one against the contract.
So the difference gets posted, adjusted, and quietly written off. It’s money you’ve already earned, and it adds up.
How it works
We find the underpayments. You choose to get paid.
- 01
We connect to your systems
We work from the practice systems you already use, under a signed BAA. Nothing new for your team to learn or manage.
- 02
We compare every payment
Each payment is checked against what your contracts and fee schedules say the insurer owes you.
- 03
We flag the underpayments
You get a clear list: which claim, which code, what was owed, what was paid, and the difference.
- 04
We appeal it, if you want
Say the word and we prepare and send the appeal to the insurance company, so you get paid what you earned.
What it costs
No added cost to your practice. Just money you’re already owed.
We get you paid what the insurer owes you and take a simple finder’s fee from what we recover. No subscription, no software license, nothing more complicated than that.
Who we work with
Working for dentists, and everyone who helps them get paid.
For office managers
Be the reason the doctor gets paid.
You keep the whole office running. We take the job nobody wants: combing through EOBs line by line, chasing short payments, writing appeals. Nothing slips through the cracks, and you get to be the one who made sure the practice was paid what it’s owed.
For practice consultants
Bring your clients money they didn’t know they were owed.
If you advise dental practices on insurance and profitability, we can check every client’s payments and hand them a clear list of what came in short. Let’s talk about working together.
For DSOs and groups
Every location, held to the same contracts.
Underpayments hide in volume. We check each office’s payments against its contracts and roll it up into one clear picture across your locations.
Built by a dentist
We work for dentists. One of us is one.
Dr. Stuart Gibby, DDS, MS, is a practicing endodontist and co-founder of Tooth Fairy AI, with co-founders Samuel Gibby and Garrett Woodhouse. He’s watched insurance payments come in short for years. We started Tooth Fairy so dentists get paid for the work they’ve already done.

Security
Built for HIPAA from day one.
You’re trusting us with your patients’ information. Here’s exactly how we protect it, with no vague badges.
BAA for every practice
We sign a Business Associate Agreement with each practice before any patient information is shared.
Your records stay in your systems
We work inside your practice software and insurer portals. We don’t copy your patient records into a database of our own.
Only what we need
We look at payments, fee schedules and the claims behind them, and nothing more.
Encrypted, locked-down devices
Our work happens on encrypted computers, with two-step sign-in on every account we use.
HIPAA-covered tools only
Any document we keep for you is stored in tools covered by their own Business Associate Agreement.
No patient information here
This website never asks for patient information, and booking a call never requires any.
FAQ
Questions dentists ask us
Is this software we have to run?
No. It’s a service. We do the checking, the digging and the appeals. Your team doesn’t learn a new system or add a new task.
What does it cost?
Nothing up front and no added cost to run your practice. We find money you’re already owed and take a simple finder’s fee from what we recover. If we don’t recover anything, you don’t pay. We’ll walk you through it on a call.
What do you need from us?
A signed Business Associate Agreement and access to the systems that hold your payments and fee schedules. We take it from there.
Do you change our claims or bill patients?
No. We never change what you billed and never contact your patients. We compare what was paid with what your contracts say, and only appeal an underpayment when you tell us to.
Is this against the insurance companies?
No. Insurers are partners, and most payments are right. But with thousands of codes and dozens of fee schedules, mistakes happen, and they rarely get corrected in your favor on their own. We hold every payment to the contract.
How is patient information protected?
We sign a BAA with every practice before any patient information is shared. We work inside your own systems, don’t copy your records into a database of our own, and use only encrypted devices and BAA-covered tools.
