Dentistry EPQ

Hi! I’ve recently started to do my EPQ and I need help picking a topic for it. I want to do Dentistry at Uni and my teacher has recommended that I try and base my EPQ around that. The problem is, I don’t have any ideas on what to do!
I do Biology, Chemistry and History (all on the OCR exam board, my EPQ is with the AQA exam board) so I need to make sure that my chosen topic doesn’t overlap with any of those subjects. I need to choose a topic by next Wednesday and any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated! If not, then I’ll just do my EPQ on another subject that I’ve already thought about.

Hiii! I'm a year 13 student applying in October! I did an EPQ based on the prioritisation of cosmetic dentistry over oral health. I also considered doing dental anxiety in the initial stages of my EPQ!

Hi, thank you so much for your suggestion! My mum and I elaborated on this idea a little bit and I decided to go for Cosmetic Dentistry, the benefits, dangers and if it’s really worth it.
Best of luck to you when you apply for Uni and thank you again!!! 😊😊😊
