Dental Hygiene and Therapy

Hi, I want to apply for dental hygiene and therapy, a lot of unis require work experience however I don’t have any work experience in a dental clinic. I only have experience as a volunteer as an IT tutor for seniors that I’ve written in my personal statement and some hospital experience that I couldn’t manage to fit into my personal statement (I took a gap year and wrote about that). Do you think it will be ok just with my volunteering?
