Supporting the Future of Dentistry

No matter where they end up practicing, we all benefit when new dental professionals receive world-class training and support. That's why Heartland Dental partners with dental and hygiene schools to ensure the next generation of dentists, hygienists, and dental assistants are set up for success right from the beginning, regardless of where they land after school.

Through externships, practice management prep, leadership summits, and even interview prep workshops, our campus recruiting team is here to support students as they map out their dream careers in the dental industry.

Let's partner to support your students—reach out to learn more!
