why do you think they didn't see the email?
I would take a deep breath, focus on choosing between the schools that did interview you, and not worry about those that don’t. There are plenty of dental schools out there and they all lead to the same place.
didn’t answer the email. Other schools did when I sent them the letter.
True but this has been my dream school for 2 years…

What letter? I think I told you, your metrics will make you attractive. You don't need a letter; you look like you're begging, and I'm not sure brand-name schools respond to moves of desperation unless they say they want to be courted. And those schools don't need to be courted.
At this point, who knows. You probably have been following the UoP and Roseman threads to gauge if there are any interview days/slots left. At this point, I suspect that all fall slots are filled, and nothing will be available until after Decision Day.
Look: YOU ARE SLAYING THIS PROCESS! You have 9 II's (including OHSU as an OOS!). If you don't get an A, I'd be shocked. If additional schools decide to throw an II after December to you, give yourself the safety net and begin to prioritize among those schools where you interviewed. Some of those schools may even throw you a significant scholarship, but start doing the math for cost of attendance and travel. I know you are very worried about debt, and with 9 schools you need to anticipate your strategy.
If you sent these schools "update/love letters," great. I hold that there is no causation between sending "update/interest letters" and getting IIs "immediately"... or at least you shouldn't believe that. Your screening score tells us where you fall in the process. So does the number of available interview spots. If we respond, we're being nice because our parents (dean/director) told us to be nice and confirm receipt. I assure you, the UoP team probably saw your note.
It's very possible you will get more IIs to fill post-December spots. Maybe that's how other schools (including the Ivys) will play because your metrics are high (yield protection). The great sorting hat in the sky will figure this out. If UoP is not one of them, that's their loss, and it's for the best. But you're probably going to dental school with an offer in hand before the end of the year.

frankly, i'm shocked that "other schools" answered
admissions committees are VERY busy right now, and they don't have the time/manpower to answer every email or call
there are tons of people across the country who would kill for a portion of your stats and interview invites
i suggest you practice for the interviews you do have, enjoy your visits (in person and virtually) to the schools
AND
(i won't say it because i'm making an effort not to be annoying on this forum)
(plus the man, the myth, the legend- BIG HOSS - already said it for me...)
i think i like you better with the mohawk...
