Possible board?

This morning I had a husband of a patient that I saw early this semester. I was assuming he would just be a 1B. He said he never had any xrays taken so I recommended we do an FMX. Surprisingly, he agreed! Yay I was excited. I decided to do them conventional so I could get those out of the way. After doing the OD and exploring I thought that he might qualify for boards or mockboards. It took me all morning for the OD and xrays but.....he qualifies! I really hope that he will work for boards. I went around and explored after my instructor did and I didn't feel quite as much as she did but she said she was being pretty strict on what surfaces she counted. She said it will definately qualify if I submit a quad and extra teeth. This takes a huge load off of my shoulders. Now I just hope that he will show up for me. He was actually really nice and really wanted to help me out so I am grateful for that. And he speaks English! My afternoon patient was just a follow up. I only had to do one quad so it was a nice afternoon.
