Are these enough ? on the application aren't there like 10 slots - so i cant really fill most of them

i dont do research and haven't won any awards , so those sections will be blank on the app - will that hurt me ?
 
Please tell me where it says you must fill in all 10 spots or else you will be denied.

What you have now is fine. Most people have about what you have. Some more, some less. Lots of people do 1 time things for 3 hours and let it take up one spot. Then list 10 of these kinds of things. The aadsas application asks for the amount of hours you spent at each activity. So in my opinion 1-2 long term (200 hours or more) activities/volunteering things are way better then 20 ones where you spent 3 hours total.

Also under shadowing you get to list each dentist separate. I would recommend for you to shadow 2-3 offices.

GPA and DAT are more important. Don't let those get low and think your ECs will help you out.
