I wanted to know what vaccines you are required to have to study dentistry in the uk and be a dentist?

I received an offer from Bristol and they’ve asked me if I have been vaccinated for:

Measles, Mumps & Rubella (MMR)
Hepatitis B
Chickenpox (Varicella Zoster)

However they mentioned that if I haven’t had any of these vaccines then they can be done at the uni when I start.

They also said that a vaccine wasn’t needed for Chickenpox if you have evidence that you’ve been infected by it at some point in your life.

Hope this helps! :smile:
