FORT WORTH, TX, March 31, 2011 (Press-News.org) What do Katie Budge, Gisele Budge, Remi Budge, Rayo Budge and Nick Budge from Ft. Worth, TX have in common besides their last name?
And what did their dad, Pascal Budge, want that they already had?
The answer to both questions is simple: braces from Apple Orthodontix.
Last fall, Budge, age 49, finally got his wish at Apple's Ft. Worth at Hulen office.
"I watched the smiles of my children improve dramatically," said Budge. "For years, I've heard comments about what lovely smiles they had. I saw them become more confident and self-assured, and decided that I wanted to be part of the group." That's when he visited Apple Orthodontix.
"My teeth weren't actually crooked," he said," but my bite was off, and my teeth didn't fit together well. Not the way they do now. My wife told me I had to wait until the kids were out of braces before I could get mine. Well, I almost made it. My youngest son, Nick, still has his braces on."
"Orthodontic treatment can be successful at virtually any age," says Budge's orthodontist, Dr. Joseph Whitesides, "and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. One of every five patients in orthodontic treatment is over twenty-one. We routinely treat patients in their 40s, 50s, 60s and even their 70s!"
Budge still has a year to go, but says, "I never thought I was too old for braces. I'm very happy to have them."

How Early can Tooth Decay be Detected?
2011-03-31
Many people do not worry about tooth decay until they are told they have a dental cavity, possibly thinking that cavities are difficult to prevent and cannot be detected until they are causing pain. However, the opposite is actually true. Cavities and tooth decay may be detected before much damage has affected the tooth, and new dental technology called DIAGNOdent is making early detection even easier than traditional cavity detection.
The Dental Explorer vs. DIAGNOdent
In traditional general dentistry a cavity may be detected by pressing the pointed end of a dental ...
Blocking carbon dioxide fixation in bacteria increases biofuel production
2011-03-31
Reducing the ability of certain bacteria to fix carbon dioxide can greatly increase their production of hydrogen gas that can be used as a biofuel. Researchers from the University of Washington, Seattle, report their findings in the current issue of online journal mBio®.
"Hydrogen gas is a promising transportation fuel that can be used in hydrogen fuel cells to generate an electric current with water as the only waste product," says Caroline Harwood, who conducted the study with James McKinlay. "Phototrophic bacteria, like Rhodopseudomonas palustris obtain energy from ...
