Heartland Dental Forms Partnership With Patterson Companies Inc.

Heartland Dental is proud to announce that we have selected Patterson Dental as our distribution partner, effective January 1, 2017. This partnership will help Heartland Dental advance our level of procurement services to supported dentists even further. It’s our goal to provide our supported dentists access to the highest quality products and services available in order to help them achieve even more success – we are confident that Patterson Dental will allow us to do just that. 

Both Heartland Dental and Patterson Dental have alignment in culture and values – an open, positive and flexible mentality. We each also have a support and technology center located in Effingham, IL. In fact, we’re neighbors! Patterson Dental’s support and technology center is down the street from our Home Office. 

“Innovation is at the center of who we are as an organization and what sets us apart in the DSO space,” said Rick Workman, executive chairman and founder of Heartland Dental. “This strategic relationship with Patterson will continue to accelerate that legacy. In addition to this being a critical element in enabling the success of our supported dentists, it’s also an incredible opportunity for the community of Effingham and our respective teams based here.”

We selected Patterson Dental because of their history of market-leading service, which aligns with our experience in the evolving DSO space. Our partnership will benefit from Patterson’s expertise in logistics, technical service, e-commerce, and technology, which enables our mutual commitment to growth. 

Patterson Dental has impressed us with their ability to provide creating solutions and strategic ideas for helping us grow and support our dentists, which is our top priority. We believe this
