Dentistry without Chemistry

Can I join Dentistry with A level Biology, Maths, Economics , Unfortunately wasn’t able to take Chemistry due to low grade in GCSE (without Exams)
I would suggest you have a look at the link below, it includes a list of all of the universities who have dentistry courses. Have a look at the entry requirements for each university and see if they will accept maths in place of chemistry, as it's still a hard science.

You will certainly have restricted options without taking Chemistry, most Universities actually prefer it over Biology for Dentistry and Medicine.

You would be able to apply for some degree courses, e.g https://www.kcl.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/courses/dentistry-bds

Or you could look at pre-dental entry courses? e.g. https://www.manchester.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/courses/2020/00399/bds-dentistry-pre-dental-entry/entry-requirements/#course-profile

What did you get in your Science GCSEs? It is odd that you were allowed to do Bio, but not Chem. Did you do separate Science?
