Gradle-native mechanism for adding database driver

I found the example for configuring DB driver dependency for Maven, but is there a similar explanation for Gradle?

I suppose I can add it to the buildscript block, but I think this approach is discouraged in the last Gradle versions. Maybe there is a separate configuration available that allows to specify it like the following?

dependencies {
        dependencyCheck 'org.postgresql:postgresql:42.7.1'
}

The main issue with using buildscript block AFAIK is that dependencies can leak into the project being built or other plugins.
