Over 1000 questions to test your knowledge on common Board items and words! (Also the ability to upgrade for 300 additional questions).
No more carrying around heavy textbooks and needing internet access to take practice exams. No page flipping to check your answers and no manually calculating your grade.

Andy Codding, RDH – better known as “AndyRDH” or “AndyFutureRDH” has been the nationwide leader and resource for helping students prepare for, take, and kick butt on the dental hygiene Board exam. He was also chosen as 2013 Phillips Sonicare National Mentor of Distinction! This app will also help you prepare for the NBDE (Dental) exam as the question banks are the same. If you are preparing for the DANB exam, this will also help!
Topics covered include:
Clinic & Ethics
Community
Dental Anatomy
Dental Materials
Microbiology
Nutrition
Oral Pathology
Periodontology
Pharmacology
Radiology
Special Needs
Use this app while waiting in line at the drive-thru, grocery store, waiting for lecture to start, or your clinic patient to come. No longer will you be worried about the times you should have been studying, if only you had your textbooks.
This app rocks!
Features:
Three Mock Board exams with 150 questions each. Rationales included for most questions!
Mock Boards have memory! They automatically shuffle the order of questions each time you take them. This means you will see a different test each time you attempt it.
Exclusive “Understood” option lets you mark a question as “understood” so that you no longer see that question again. We have an option in the settings menu to uncheck all understood questions if you want to see them again later. Marking questions as understood, means each time you take the test, you only focus on ones that you don’t understand yet. Mark each one understood until you know and comprehend the questions and answers for all the questions! This insures you “know” before you “go” take the real Board exam. (This feature only works for Mock Boards 1-4. It does not work in the per topic section).
Has a “save” feature so you can save your progress to return to at a later time.
Questions by topic. Do you only want to take questions on just Dental Materials or Dental Anatomy? This option allows you to focus only on one topic. Eleven main topics are covered.
Prefixes and suffixes section - This area has nearly 300 questions testing your knowledge of the most important area you can study for the Board exam. If you know the prefixes and suffixes, you can better answer test items and deduce the meaning of words you are unfamiliar with.
90% of vocabulary on boards can be determined simply by knowing common prefixes and suffixes! This app makes sure you are on your “A-Game” when tackling the Board exam!
Exclusive feature of converting your score percentage of correct answers to what it would be on the real Board exam! This is based off last year’s five test versions and will convert your percentage to what you would have made on the real test with your results. This is a must for gauging your studying and is only available based on Andy’s extensive research of multiple scoresheets.
These Mock Board questions are exclusive to the AndyRDH app and cannot be found any other location!!
Rationales for most questions are available. To find out rationales for incorrect answers, you must select them. *IMPORTANT * Please be sure you scroll to the bottom of each of the answer screens. There is additional text for most answers such as some rationales as well as the ability to review the question you just answered.

It stopped working for some odd reason
Apr 22, 2020 I give this product a 3 star because I actually liked it! For some odd reason it just stopped working and i can’t get it to work again. It’s a little frustrating because I’m just days from taking my exam and I liked to practice with their questions!! Please try to fix it!! more -
Thank you, you helped me PASS!
Aug 16, 2020 This app was so helpful to me for my boards. I studied for boards constantly because of the easy access right from my phone. Rationales helped me learn why answers were incorrect & even taught me different things I hadn’t learned in school. This app was part of the reason why I passed boards (the other part was the in person review from AndyRDH). Thank you!!!! more -
Great tool!!
May 15, 2018 I would highly recommend this app! Although it's not perfect, its pretty close and a lot of questions related to the board exam! And its so convenient. I would recommend studying a topic and then quizzing yourself with the tests by subject! I was worried at first because of the bad reviews but I decided to get it since it was only $10 and I'm glad I did! more -
Great app!!
May 3, 2021 I found this app super helpful to aid in my studying for boards. I would use it whenever I was on the go, and while I was on a study break at the gym. The radiology landmarks were especially helpful. I passed boards my first time and I think this app is to thank for helping me retain majority of what I was studying! more -
Feb 24, 2019 Does not save countdown timers after exiting app. Booooo. -
Okay
Aug 12, 2019 The app isn’t too bad for $10, its a good review but a lot of spelling errors, some incorrect answers and none of the pictures will load for the radiology review. It was good... now it won’t let me log in and says something is wrong... something is also spelt incorrectly more -
Great Study Tool
Jan 4, 2017 The app has been updated!!! Don't be afraid to buy this app because of some of the bad reviews from last year. It works great and is super helped. I am taking my boards in a few months and feel this will help a lot. -
Extremely helpful app
Aug 16, 2020 I loved using this app to study for my board exams! When I didn’t have my textbooks this app was so easy and convenient to get some extra study time! Passed all my exams on the first try and I give credit to AndyRDH! -
Mar 17, 2018 I honestly really liked this app, the questions are what we learned in class, but this app constantly crashes. Sometimes it wont even let me log in saying my email isnt registered even though I got the email and been using it for a week. Sometimes when I wanna select a subject or a mock board test, it will crash and say their isnt any questions avaible. This app has potential, too bad it doesnt work at all. more -
App is no longer working ☹️
Jun 17, 2018 I purchased this app a few months ago to prepare myself for board exam, but unfortunately it stopped working! I’m willing to repurchase it because I found the app to be very helpful.

Feb 11, 2021 I had the same problem as Alfonso- I couldn't answer a single question without the app stopping and closing on me- I tried multiple subjects and tried restarting my phone. Nothing works. I have friends with iphones that are able to use it tho. Refund. :( more -
Oct 13, 2018 After 1 good use, the app keeps prompting me to take the mock board from the beginning. It doesn't help me in utilizing my time wisely. Not sure if it can be fixed. -
Better rationales please!!!
May 20, 2020 I like this app a lot, but PLEASE give better rationales!!! If I get an answer wrong and the rationale basically says “this is not the right answer” that is not a good rationale. I wish it would explain it better. please fix this for future users since we are paying 15 dollars for this. example question: Question : Teeth in snowcapped amelogenesis imperfecta have: Option 1 : A thin, brown enamel Description : Incorrect - This is not characteristic of teeth in snowcapped amelogenesis imperfecta. Let's try a new question. Option 2 : Obliterated pulp chambers Description : Incorrect - This is not characteristic of teeth in snowcapped amelogenesis imperfecta. Let's try a new question. Option 3 : Short, blunted roots Description : Incorrect - This is not characteristic of teeth in snowcapped amelogenesis imperfecta. Let's try a new question. Option 4 : White hypocalcified enamel at the incisal and occlusal thirds Description : Correct! Teeth in snowcapped amelogenesis imperfecta are characterized by a hypomaturation of the surface enamel of the occlusal third of all the teeth of both dentitions. Great job! OBVIOUSLY if it says incorrect then i know that is not a characteristic so please explain what IS associated with obliterated pulp chambers. more -
Dec 9, 2019 It is not collecting any data and there are no tests available under the radiology section. Also, the tests completely reset if my screen switches from vertical to horizontal view. -
Scam
May 23, 2020 I purchased AndyRDH and while they charged my account immediately I was unable to access it because I never received an email verification. I heard a lot of great things about this app and wanted a little extra material before I took my exam. After waiting 5 days, which felt like over a week because when stressing about your exam the days feel like years, Andy made sure to correct the fact that I hadn’t waited a long time to get access. What stung the most is that when I asked for a refund because I had never accessed the account and my exam is right around the corner he told me that I would have to dispute the charges with Apple Pay and ended the email with how great his customer service is. more -
May 16, 2019 Cannot sign up due to the sign up page being completely covered by the circle. Unable to scroll past. -
Mar 13, 2019 I could not sign up the ball kept on getting bigger and bigger when I push sign up bottom and I couldn't put my info in first last name etc -
Waste of Money
Apr 26, 2019 This app would not load multiple categories of questions, and I could only access 1 Mock Review out of the 6 they offer. The questions I was able to access were helpful that is why this is 2/5 stars BUT the app does not explain why the other options are not the answer it will just say it is not the answer. Some questions explain why but most do not. Overall I paid for this app and I should’ve been able to access all of the questions on the app and I could not. more -
Jul 11, 2019 awful....could even get it to stay on a screen long enough to enter name. Want my money back. -
Something went wrong
Jun 4, 2020 Loved it until it stopped working for me. I read other reviews of this happening but decided to buy it anyways. It worked for a while but the now. When I need it most. It just keeps telling me something went wrong and nothing loads. Somethings could have been better like the rationales for some questions and I noticed 1 or 2 that didn’t match up with my notes. But those little things were easy to look passed while it was working. So so sad now. more

Pass boards on the first try!
Jul 29, 2017 The best app on the market, I love that each question has a rationale to help you understand the question better! Hands down the best study tool for anywhere, anytime studying. -
VERY HELPFUL
Apr 6, 2018 This app is awesome. The questions are challenging but good. Of course it gives you the answer but it also explains (majority of the time) why the other answers aren’t the correct choice. This definitely helped me for my NBDHE. -
Passed boards !
May 2, 2019 The seniors before my class suggested this app and everyone in my class loved it I don’t know why this app has such a low rating but most of my classmates loved this app
-
Radiology test
May 19, 2016 There is a question on the radiology test that the right answer is the soft tissue of the nose and you have it as correct answer but when we select it as an answer we get it wrong! It is the 7th question before the last one.

Mar 6, 2018 Great questions, really subpar, quickly thrown together, barebones app. The rationales seriously have no effort put into them. Once you finish a test, there's no option to review questions you missed. And yeah the countdown doesn't work but I could care less. Also you can save your progress in each test now so that's good. It's practically AndyRDH's review questions made mobile. Cheaper than buying AndyRDH's review course, but I'm still offended at the lack of effort. more -
Feb 14, 2018 I like the test questions. Hate that I put My boards and graduation date In the count down and it doesn't stay. Everytime I open the app I have to redo it Or even exit a mock test, it doesn't stay.

Works 1/3 of the time
Apr 26, 2020 When I first got this app it worked well with really no problems. Now it hasn’t worked for the past week. I take my boards in 5 days and this app is basically worthless now since it won’t load anything. It just keeps saying “something went wrong try again”. I guess when it works it’s a good app. But no good to me now. Thankfully it wasn’t nearly as expensive as others but still. more -
Mar 10, 2018 Cannot go back on tests. Easy questions. The rationales are super limited, it tells the right answer, but barely explains why. Do not BUY. Spend your money on Student RDH, great app.

Oct 22, 2020 This app keeps foreclosing every time I select an answer. What a waste. Refund -
Jun 5, 2020 "No questions found" every time I click on a subject so there no actual use for the app, at all. -
Feb 1, 2019 bought it, tried to sign up and never recieved the email to confirm account. tried 2 emails. -
Unable to gain access
Sep 27, 2019 I downloaded the app today and after a few hours I still have not received my verification email so I am unable to even use the material! I can’t even get to a spot to contact the support to see what’s going on. I know I used the correct email address because I tried logging in and it prompted me to verify login from the email first. If support could reach out and help me gain access, I would gladly accept! more -
Jun 5, 2020 This app stopped loading test questions, and now will not let me log in! I want my $10 back >:( -
Aug 7, 2020 My test questions won't come up. It only shows some to answer. I paid for a app that doesn't even work.
What’s Groovy
Before I had downloaded this app, I had heard so many good things - that people would be able to only study this material and be able to pass boards. So I downloaded the app and set up my profile. This is when issues started. Before I was able to log in, I needed to verify my account through the email I provided. Never received it. Finally had to reach out to support. Was finally able to use the app for a full day. Only one. Then the entire app crashed and no one was able to log in. Everyone I know who has the app wasn’t able to use it. We contacted support and they said it was just a bug and they were fixing it. “Should be done by tomorrow.” Tomorrow came around and it was still broken. Contacted again. “Will hopefully be done today.” Still waiting on it to be fixed. Regarding the materials in the app itself, it is fair. Lots of test questions from various subjects. The rationale behind why your selected answer is right or wrong is subpar - some will explain why and others won’t. Overall, the materials in the app is fine, but that’s only when the app itself actually works...might be better off studying other materials and apps if I’m being honest.

What’s Subpar
Major bugs are not fixed. For example, the countdown does not work. Your accomplishments go back to 0% after you close out after each study session. You start back at the beginning for questions by subject as well. You can maybe use it if you have time to work through the whole subject in one sitting. Otherwise I would not recommend for mini study reviews between classes/appointments or while waiting in line.
