Entering into dentistry Uk

I’m a year 13 who just finished my A levels. Was just wondering if anyone knows if there is a pathway to apply to dentistry after studying dental hygiene in university. Would really appreciate if someone got back to me, thanks

You could apply to a post graduate dentistry course which tends to be 4 years rather than 5 but it is very competitive (:

Hey thanks for reply, would you say it’s more competitive than the normal entry into dentistry the 5 year course?
