I recently got a D+ in a class that i was retaking for a second time, after withdrawing the first time. I know a C is needed for dental schools. Should I retake the class for a third time? If I do a masters is that necessary?

Kind of depends on your grades for the other prerequisite and science classes

They're average, A's and B's, probably more B's than As

Then your science GPA probably took a big hit. I’d say retake, shoot for an A. If your science GPA is still below 3.2 you should probably look at a SMP. Kind of also depends on your DAT score as a low GPA can be countered by a high DAT. Say 25AA 3.2 sGPA that’s not too bad but 20AA 3.1 sGPA gives you a slim chance.

Retake and get an A. Almost every dental student takes a Biochem course during D1 you should show you can handle it
