Hi, your marks are too low to get you a seat in government college for MBBS or BDS. With these marks you can apply for private dental colleges or can go for MBBS under management quota in  deemed colleges. You can apply for Ayush courses as well.
If above mentioned options does not feel good then you can definitely drop a year and study well and score 590+ marks which will help you getting a seat in government medical college. Remember cutoff varies every year depending on number of students appearing in exam, difficulty level of exam, students scoring more than you and your category.
Hope this helps
