So I have two LOR's submitted already, one from a physics teacher and the other from an orthodontist. I'm having trouble finding another science professor write one for me ever since the original other professor bailed last minute. I have another one coming from and oral surgeon. I talked to some schools they said I could have a non science professor, or have the 2 dental professionals plus the 1 letter from a professor, but would that look bad? WWYD??

I would personally get another science professor to write one.
 
I only shadowed Dentists and didn't think that would be enough for them to write me a good letter so I sent in 1 Science, 1 Research, 1 Humanities, 1 Professional/Job.

In general 1 good Dentist letter is sufficient so try to get another Science prof. But if all hope is lost send in the oral surgeon's letter too.
 
I would get another science professor. If you get two letters from a dentist, they might just pick one of them to read.
