I am also looking at Dentistry :smile:. I was looking at Medicine as well but medicine is such a popular degree and it's grades are really high. Dentistry really interests me and I to would like to study it at Kings if i were to take it. I have been researching and I was wondering you also found that there are a limited number of universities that offer Dentistry?, which is a common course. Unlike Medicine were loads of Uni's offer the course.

Try to get top grades in everything, more importance on the sciences. Take Chem, Bio and two other subjects (whatever you want) at A level. Also try to get as much experience as you can i.e shadowing dentists etc. during your summers.
