Effingham, Illinois, Aug. 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heartland Dental, the largest dental support organization in the country, was recently included in the 2017 Inc. 5000, which lists the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. This is the company’s seventh appearance in the Inc. 5000, a feat achieved by less than a tenth of Inc. 5000 honorees.

Created by Inc. over 30 years ago, the annual Inc. 5000 list features America’s fastest growing private companies spanning all industries, states and revenue brackets. These companies do business all over the world and are among the most-trafficked internet websites. As a 2017 Inc. 5000 honoree, Heartland Dental joins companies such as Pinnacle Group, Freedom Mortgage, Halo Top Creamery and many more thriving businesses. “Heartland Dental has never stood still. This year specifically, we’ve had the opportunity to move forward in many ways, from leadership, culture, technology and educational standpoints,” added Patrick Bauer, President and Chief Executive Officer at Heartland Dental. “We plan to continue that trend as 2018 approaches.”
To qualify for the 2017 Inc. 5000, businesses must have generated at least $100,000 in revenue in 2013, at least $2 million in revenue in 2016, be privately held, for profit, based in the U.S. and independent (not a subsidiary or division of another company).
