Most dental schools require the following (found on this website): https://www.adea.org/godental/Apply/tips-for-preparing-to-enter-dental-school/preparing-for-dental-school/prerequisites
Some dental schools have different requirements so I’d recommend making a list of 10 dental schools you’d consider applying to and see what their course requirements are (in case there is anything in addition to what’s listed above).
Best of luck

Hi Hank! I'm not very familiar with the US higher education system, but courses in basic sciences (biology, chemistry, biochemistry) and health sciences, such as physiology, pathology, anatomy, pharmacology, and histology, are always prerequisites for studying dentistry. In Chile, if you don't go directly into dental school, you must first complete a Bachelor of Science degree. From there, you can switch to dentistry and transfer your completed basic science courses to the first semester of dentistry. I wish you much success, patience, and perseverance in obtaining your dental degree.
