A Dental Support Organization Built by Doctors to Elevate Dentistry

Being a dentist is a proud profession. It asks a great deal of the people who choose it. In 1997, Dr. Rick Workman of Effingham, Illinois, founded Heartland Dental as the first dental support organization. His vision was to help doctors lead their practices while having the support and resources to achieve new levels of success.

SUPPORTING CLINICAL EXCELLENCE

Delivering world-class patient care starts with doing the right things for the right reasons.

Only now, with our support model behind you, you’ll have the time and focus to provide more comprehensive care for those who come to see you. At a Heartland Dental supported practice, you’ll have the access and opportunity to learn and offer new procedures, connect with mentors and peers, and utilize the latest technology in your practice. That’s what happens when you become part of something greater.

COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT

More Support Means More Opportunity. And More of a Life Outside of Work.

When the business side runs smoothly, your whole practice feels it. As a Heartland Dental supported doctor, you remain the leader that your team trusts, while experienced support teams help handle operations, HR, marketing, vendors, payers, and more. Our support model has been proven and is constantly refined, so you can grow your practice with confidence and still have the time and energy to enjoy the life and rewards that you’ve earned.

“My philosophy is that dentists don’t need to own a building. They need to own their reputation. After years of slugging it out by myself, I decided that hey, I don’t have to go at this thing alone.”
