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.  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!

Clinic & Ethics 
Community 
Dental Anatomy

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:

Nearly 1000 total questions with ability to upgrade for additional questions.

Countdown timer!  Set you Board test date and graduation date and always see how many seconds are remaining!  You’re closer than you think!  Are you ready!?
Four mock Board exams with 150 questions each.  Rationales included for most questions!  Ability to upgrade to more mock Boards.

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.

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 can not be found on the  HYPERLINK "http://www.AndyFutureRDH.com" www.AndyFutureRDH.com websitem or any other location!!

Rationales for most questions are available.  To find out rationales for incorrect answers, you must select them.

### 5/5 — Need some UX updates

*2026-03-21, version 6.1*

It’s a very useful app, but there are some features need to be added . Like when you do mock up exam, you choose answer and you cannot go back to see the question especially when there is an image in the question. It would be useful to go back and see the xray again after you know the correct answer.

### 3/5 — Needs improvement

*2026-03-08, version 6.1*

The Questions aren’t bad. I thought they were helpful. The case studies are hard and overly specific. My biggest complaint are the rationales, they could be one of the best tools for learning but they are basically useless on this app. They just tell you the answer is right or wrong without telling you why. boosterprep has amazing rationales, even though the questions aren’t bad harder.

### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE

*2026-01-08, version 6.1*

I live in Canada and just paid 56$ for this app to prepare for my board exam. I can’t even sign up for the app because it is only available in the US. At least make it unavailable to download so others do t make the same mistake.

### 2/5 — Good material; Horrible UI

*2026-01-01, version 6.1*

Good practice questions and flashcards… If only they were easy to access. Too many bugs and crashes. This shouldn’t be happening when the app is nearly $20 imo

### 2/5 — Many incorrect questions

*2024-12-27, version 6.0*

This board review has many questions that directly contradict what is stated in the AndyRDH review book. Giving it two stars because it at least motivates me to find and know the correct answer.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it!

*2024-10-24*

I used this in conjunction with other studying methods and would recommend to others. The practice tests helped me understand topics that I should go over more for the board. It helped me see where I was at overall with studying.

### 2/5 — Could be better

*2024-05-01, version 6.0*

If it worked all the time it could be useful but it often glitches out and freezes, you have to constantly delete it and redownload.

### 5/5 — Great App and Company!

*2024-03-03, version 6.0*

Great app for studying and Andy is always willing to help for any issues or questions.

### 5/5 — Passed my Boards 2024 ! Thank you Andy !

*2024-02-28, version 6.0*

I used this app along side the textbook and they complimented each other greatly ! ( the online access of the modules for the textbook via computer is GREAT!!! I Felt like it broke down the material in a crash course ) The questions give you a great baseline for how questions on the boards are worded. However , lots of people ask if these questions show up on their exam and in my experience no. But some of my classmates who used the app said they had a handful. The case studies on this app are hard ! But it’s a great way to prepare you for the boards. The boards are straightforward you just have to read EVERYTHING and think. These cases studies in the app are not the best quality of pictures but it’s good because it makes the boards feel easier to comprehend. If you’re looking at purchasing this app as your ONLY source of studying I wouldn’t recommend.

### 5/5 — passed my boards 1st try!

*2024-02-28, version 6.0*

i used andys book (which i bought from a previous graduate) and this app to study for my national board exam. I can not stress enough how helpful this app was for me. it has flashcards, practice questions, radiographs to analyze, and more! thank you Andy!
