A post-bac is technically non-degree courses you took after a bachelors, and not part of a second bachelors.
Its kind of an in between area after a bachelors, but before a higher degree (masters, PhD DDS).
In the OPs situation it doesnt really matter what you call it because it is just a name, and wont make a difference anywhere or to anyone (except for the fact that you do have a second degree).

certificate?? I completed post-bacc courses and I didnt receive no stinkin certificate. D*mn the certificate gods!!!, D*mn them!!!
Sorry about that. actually, post-bacc just means taking non-degree seeking classes after you received your bachelors. Ie, I took science pre-recs after I received my business degree since they werent required for my major.
All the post bacs I looked into had no certificates or designations for transcripts. They were all informal post-bacs, which basically means youre a grad student without a major. This allows you to register and take all the classes like a grad student but without earning a degree.
There are a few formal post-bacs out there that tell you exactly what courses to take and will award a certificate. Since the classes are usually all the science pre-reqs, these are generally for people who were non-science majors.

Academically, post bacc programs are those that lead to a degree, e.g. master or doctorate (Ph.D., D.D.S., M.D., O.D., Pharm D., DVM, ED, and others). You can have as many degrees (bacc) as you want but each additional degree is not considered a post bacc. Your second degree, even if you received a formal (bacc) degree does not qualify as a post bacc The confusion appears to come from the post bacc programs that are being offered by professional schools (dental) as remedial courses intended to improve a candidate's chance of being accepted to ds. They are evaluated as undergraduate courses.
