go to the website of almost any school, look at what qualities they look for in applicants, and make them your rec letter with examples from what you did in the dentist's office.
and no, dont mention where he graduated. he will put his credentials when he finalize the letter

I had to write three out of the four that I asked for. My dentist and two professors. By the third letter, it became really hard to talk about myself in a different way lol. No idea how much they were changed once my evaluators got them.
Mine did! Two of the dentist that i shadowed and, now work with made me write it.

There is my school's LOR form. You can use it as an outline.

I googled random letters to get an idea of what to write, I found a lot of examples on there. You could start with your attitude at the place you shadowed at. Like, how positive your energy was ... ect

I felt like I was cheating when I wrote 3 out 4 of mine. I talked to my brother who finished dental school in 1999. He said that he had to write most of his letters too. Good to know not much as changed

I'd include the amount of hours you spent shadowing him in the LOR
Wow where did you people go to school? That is so unethical

It's not like I sent in the final version with my eval's signature. For all I know, they could have deleted everything I wrote and wrote something totally different

I know, right? Lol. My dentist wrote mine, but she allowed me to read it and I already felt guilty enough just getting a peek.
Time for us to play a game. It's called the red and blue pill game.
Red pill: Include that he is the alumni of (Dental school X), increases your chances to get into Dental school X, but decreases your chances of getting into other dental schools.
Blue pill: Don't include that, normal rec letter.
