This annual list, created over 30 years ago, is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies in the country. The companies featured on this list conduct business all over the world and are among the most-trafficked internet websites. Being named to the Inc. 5000 list is an accomplishment on its own, but as a 7th time honoree, we are able to celebrate a very special recognition. Less than a tenth of Inc. 5000 honorees have achieved this milestone. Inc. 5000 refers to this select group as the “Honor Roll.” This achievement comes at an opportune time as we’re also celebrating 20 years of Heartland Dental this year. In 20 seemingly short years, it’s overwhelming to see what our “small-town” company has achieved. Currently, we have over 10,000 team members and more than 1,200 supported doctor who are a part of nearly 800 supported offices across 34 states. Our first time being featured on the Inc. 5000 list was in 2003. “Heartland Dental has never stood still,” said our President and Chief Executive Officer, Patrick Bauer. “This year specifically, we’ve had the opportunity to move forward in many ways – from leadership, culture, technology and educational standpoints. We plan to continue that trend in 2018." Heartland Dental joins companies such as Halo Top Creamery, FabFitFun, Pinnacle Group and fellow dental support organization, Pacific Dental Services, Inc.  Over the last two decades, we are grateful for the growth we have received and can’t wait to see what the future holds!
