It was given to my dentist that I scheduled an appointment while they were gathering my insurance info. They are a legitimate business but is there any risk in giving the number over the phone?

I mean, there's never a 0% chance the person taking your call won't steal your ID I guess, but giving your SSN over the phone isn't the same as posting it online or anything. It's not like anyone was secretly listening in.
