Dentistry is the branch of medicine that is involved in the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders and conditions of the oral cavity, maxillofacial area and the adjacent and associated structures and their impact on the human body.

Each fully qualifies the holder to practice dentistry in at least the jurisdiction in which the degree was presented, assuming local and federal government licensure requirements are met.
Check the various dental degrees provided according to the country of your choice. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_degree)

Each country may have their own requirement for Dental admissions so before applying please make sure that those requirements are taken into proper consideration.
As far as I know, subjects such as Biology and Chemistry are compulsory along with additional subjects such as Physics or Mathematics.
Any questions, please feel free to ask. :)
