Definitely carry on asking around however in the meantime there’s a MOOC called discover dentistry by Sheffield uni u can do. (https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/discover-dentistry).
I think this should be the correct link to take u to it. It takes about 6 weeks to complete if I remember correctly because each week a new lesson unlocks.

Although it doesn’t replace wex u can still put it on ur personal statement to show interest into dentistry. U can also mention the skills u learnt from wex in the primary school and office job in ur ps too. I think u can link the skills back to dentistry and explain y they’re important to show that u understand the career.
