Hello, is it recommended to take a Master's or Postbacc or apply straight to DS?

Depends on your GPA

If you’re sub 3.0, you’ll most likely need a masters. If you’re hovering 3.0-3.3 you might benefit from a post bacc. If you’re >3.5 you would be able to apply to dental school. The lower your GPA the stronger of a DAT score you’re going to want to have. Think 21-22+.

Thank you for the clarification.

What does non-trad mean? I've seen it in multiple threads and was curious about it.

Usually Military or career changers, maybe a few others can be added to this but can't think of them off the top of my head.

Ok interesting. So not the typical 4 bacc, 4 dental route? Anything that's not this path...
