Recipients were required to demonstrate a record of business success and growth, community involvement, dedication to employees, leadership, reliability and commitment to customer service.

“They really had you dig into your history and your records,” said Joyce Anne Longfellow, co-owner of Children’s Dental village. “The application process was very rigorous.”

Children’s Dental Village has been providing dental and orthodontic services for children and teens since 1973. Starting out with only two dental chairs, one office manager and one dental assistant, the office has grown to more than quadruple its original size and now has 22 employees who also dedicated their time to volunteer projects throughout the year.
