Star Treatment

Planetary adoration is inevitable when you see locals' father and son movie stars with dazzling Zaytoun Smiles starring in the movie Courageous. They are Rusty Martin Sr. and Rusty Martin Jr. who
Rusty Martin Sr & jr w Drs.
Rusty Martin Sr. & Rusty Jr. with
Drs Mary Paula & Henry Jr.
both play significant roles.  

The outstanding movie is about five men (four on a local police force) striving to be better fathers.  The story illustrates the everyday struggles of fatherhood and dealing with tragedy when it comes their way.

Starry-Eyed Surprise: Zaytoun Orthodontics' doctors and staff went together to see Courageous two weeks ago. They were privileged, thrilled and 'star-struck' when Rusty Martin Sr.
Rusty Martin Jr w staff
Rusty Martin Jr with Z-Team Staff 
 
and Jr. showed up at the movie theater.  

After the movie, consensus was that they found it a compelling story with plenty of action and just the right amount of humor. It shouldn't be missed by anyone who's always wondering why they don't make wholesome movies with uplifting messages anymore.

CourageousPlus, watching two Z-Team patients with beautiful smiles on the big screen is an even better reason to go see this film! Courageous is still being shown in theaters in Raleigh, Cary, Apex, and Garner. Click Here to find a theater near you. 

How's that for seeing stars? 

Nightmares for Braces: Halloween Candy to Avoid

Pumpkin w bracesHalloween is a fun time of year for kids of all ages... but can be a 'nightmare' for our patients if they are damaging their braces by eating the wrong treats.  Does this mean your ghoulish evening must be treat-free if you or your kids have braces? No way! Just make sure you eat foods that are soft and easy to chew. Such as these:
  • Soft, melt-in-your-mouth chocolates
  • Peanut butter cups
  • Gelatin
  • Peeled, thinly sliced apples
  • Ice cream
  • Cup cakes (Click Here to see article on "Sweet Deliverance" for some hot new ideas on recipes and DIY decorating tips)Mummy Cupcakes 
Halloween Foods to Avoid if you have Braces: Generally any sticky, hard, chewy or crunchy foods should be limited or avoided. So off limits to these:
  • Caramels
  • Nuts
  • Licorice
  • Jelly Beans, Gummy Bears
  • Hard Pretzels
  • Bubble Gum
  • Candy Corn
  • Lollipops
  • Taco chips
  • Ice 
Brush and Floss: You don't want your dental health to be a scary affair, so be sure to brush and floss after your Halloween outings. This will dislodge any candy and other foods stuck in the braces (and is just good dental hygiene you should practice daily).
 
Now go out there and have a ghoulishly good time and take good care of your braces!
