Effingham, Ill.-based Heartland Dental has made several moves to expand its network and support dental hygiene students.
Here are four updates since June 16:
1. Heartland Dental is building a $1.5 million practice in Katy, Texas. Construction on the 4,200-square-foot location is expected to start Aug. 1 and be completed by Feb. 1, 2024.

The practice is expected to begin operations in the new office by the end of the third quarter of this year.
