As a dentist, you are comfortable managing a team of dental professionals, helping patients achieve positive oral health outcomes, and continuing your education. You will be a leader of a Heartland Dental supported office—it’s that simple. You’ll continue to enjoy full clinical autonomy, competitive compensation from a supported professional corporation, access to state-of-the-art equipment, and mentorship programs within a network of more than 2,400 supported doctors. Find out what joining a supported practice could mean for you.
You have elite skills and ambitious personal and professional goals. Our supported practices can help you put those skills to work in an exciting environment and achieve your goals faster with our world-class administrative support system. Plus, you'll enjoy industry-leading compensation packages from supported PCs.
All full-time supported doctors enjoy the flexibility to take time off in a way that best fits their lifestyle, and also to determine coverage plans that make sense in the office. Our supported practices observe six paid holidays annually, and full-time supported office team members are eligible to accrue at least two weeks of paid time off per year.
Excellent dental care is (of course) part of the Heartland Dental supported doctor benefits package—for you and your family. Our supported practices also offer several health plans, as well as prescription, vision, and life insurance coverage.
We want our supported doctors to thrive and remain with the Heartland Dental support network for the long haul. Compensation packages for full-time supported doctors extend beyond a competitive, guaranteed base salary, offering you the opportunity to earn significantly more than the average dentist in the U.S., without the stress.
Doing your best work for your patients is rewarding, but there’s also more to life than your career. Our supported practices strive to create an environment that encourages you to thrive inside the office and out. Teams work hard and play hard and are well taken care of in a fun work environment.
Our supported practices offer continuing education opportunities to advance your clinical skills and hone your leadership and communication abilities. You will have access to more than 200+ continuing education hours across several disciplines, plus a network of more than 2,400 colleagues to tap into for support with mentoring, development, and growth.
When you join the Heartland Dental support network, you’ll discover rewarding new opportunities to support your community. From sponsoring the local tee-ball team to Free Dentistry Days and My Free Smile, Heartland Dental supported offices are committed to giving back to the people they serve. And as a supported doctor, you’ll make a direct impact on community health and well-being.
Take your professional career farther with Heartland Dental’s signature Doctor Mastery Program. In the DMP, a comprehensive five-year program open to all Heartland Dental supported dentists, you will train advanced clinical skills alongside expert clinicians and businesspeople. The goal? To help you become a leader in your chosen discipline. And participating doctors who complete all program requirements will receive a “mastery bonus” of up to $250,000.
