I shadowed two dentists, 20 and 30ish hours each.
When I submitted the application, I kind of estimated my shadowing hours b/c I was not keeping track of the hours. But is it ok to estimate??
 
As long as you're consistent you should be fine! Some schools have you fill out a form to have the dentists sign or describe your involvement at their office which includes how many hours you were there, as long as you're consistent and the dentists say the same thing you should be ok!
