How do I shadow someone in the career field I want to go into? (Multiple questions below)

I am a junior in high school and I really want to shadow a dentist and a sonographer because those are my top two choices. By shadowing it'll help me understand which career path I would rather go into. It would also give me some good experience. HOWEVER, my problem is no one is answering my emails. Has this happened to anyone? Is there anything else I should do? Is there something besides shadowing that will help me gain more insight?

How should I decide if I want to be a dentist or an ultrasound technician/sonographer?

I am a junior in high school and I'm having a hard time choosing what I want to become. My top choices are definitely a dentist or an ultrasound tech. However, I'm conflicted about which one to choose. Going the dentist route I'd be in school for longer, around 8 years while ultrasound tech would only take about 4. However, I wouldn't mind being in school for long (I hope). They both had good salaries too. Hence, why I am conflicted. PLEASEEE help me decide because I feel like I should make a choice soon so I know where I want to go to college.

What type of ultrasound technician makes the most money?

I heard that neurosonography brings in the most but then I learned that that isn't a formal job anymore because it became a subset to another role.
