Dental Support Services and Allied Professions at Remington College-North Houston Campus

Remington College-North Houston's dental support program sits right at the Texas median for earnings but significantly underperforms national standards. While graduates earn $21,721 in their first year—exactly matching the state average—this places them in just the 19th percentile nationally, meaning 80% of similar programs across the country produce higher-earning graduates. The modest debt load of $9,500 keeps the program accessible, with graduates needing less than half their first-year salary to cover educational costs.

The earnings trajectory offers some optimism, with pay increasing 23% to $26,683 by the fourth year. However, even this improved figure falls well short of top Texas programs like The College of Health Care Professions campuses, where graduates start near $29,000. Given that 93% of students receive Pell grants, affordability clearly matters here, and the low debt burden does provide a path into the dental field without crushing financial pressure.

For families seeking entry into dental support careers, this program delivers predictable but modest outcomes. The combination of below-average national performance and middle-of-the-pack Texas results suggests your child would be better served by programs like Pima Medical Institute's Texas locations, which offer substantially higher starting salaries for similar debt levels.
