Orthodontist Mathue Faulkner, DDS, MS Joins #1 Choice for Braces and Invisalign, Apple Orthodontix in Mesquite, TX

    QUINLAN, TX, May 26, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ask Mathue Faulkner why he became an orthodontist and he'll channel his inner mathematician for you. "Orthodontics scratches the same itch as solving a good math problem," says Faulkner. "There's just something about sitting down and working on a difficult equation that's fun and very satisfying." A puzzle and board game whiz and self-proclaimed math geek, orthodontics just makes sense to Faulkner. "Math is like a puzzle. It's a challenge with an answer. When you solve it, there's a definite sense of accomplishment. It's just like figuring out the intricacies of a beautiful smile."

"We have a unique blend of talents in Dr. Faulkner," says Apple Orthodontix CEO Chad M. Packard of his newest doctor. "He brings the logic of the mathematical mind to his love of creating beautiful smiles for patients, especially for children. It's a perfect equation for creating the smiles that change people's lives."

Faulkner worked as an orthodontic assistant during college, and received his DDS degree from the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in SF, CA in 2008. His passion for orthodontics was reignited during dental school, and he completed his orthodontic residency and MS degree at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 2011.

Dr. Faulkner now runs the Mesquite office for Apple Orthodontix, the largest provider of orthodontic care in the north Texas area. "Joining Apple was a great opportunity for me. Apple runs a great business where patients are treated the right way. They're not run through an assembly line. They get all the individual attention that they deserve," says Faulkner. "The doctors are given a lot of freedom to treat patients and run their offices as they feel will most benefit their patients and staff."

When not deep into the struggle and strategy of complicated board games like Agricola, Faulkner enjoys camping and hiking with his dogs. He's half Japanese and loves connecting with his culture. He spent two years as a church missionary in Tokyo and speaks fluent Japanese.
