Best way for Mature students to get into dentistry

I would love to hear about everyone's experience as I am struggling myself on what to do in order to get into dentistry

I can't decide if I should do A levels or to do Access as only two unis out of all of them claim to accept them (the access courses I have access to)
Kings claims to accept them on their website however I read somewhere MAY accept ...
So this may as me thinking I should do a levels to be taken seriously and better prepare myself for uni

I would love to hear any mature students story about getting into dentistry <3

Hopefully I will be able to achieve this goal - I am dental nurse and I know some people feel therapy/hygiene is enough which is the case for a lot however working with most types of clinicians I am by FAR interested to make my next step dentistry and hopefully I can make this jump
