Graduate entry dentistry

I applied for dentistry this year and I got rejected, I want to reapply but if there's a chance i don't get the grades needed I was thinking of going through graduate route entry into dentistry. I want to know what courses can I apply to in university that will ensure i can apply to graduate entry dentistry.

Honestly taking a year out and reapplying > graduate entry Dentistry it is so competitive places are around 69/1100. You are better off taking a year out to reapply again. Hopefully you hear good results this time round!

It’s definitely possible to do graduate entry but it is more competitive. Schools that offer specific graduate entry programmes are UClan, Kings and Aberdeen. Many schools with undergraduate dentistry degrees accept graduates too such as Manchester and QMUL but these are extremely competitive as you are also applying against all the school leavers. I am doing a graduate entry dental degree if you wanted any more info !
