[quote=Anonymous]I admire the parents who are sacrificing to pay for braces, and I also am fine with Medicaid paying for braces. In today's economy, having crooked teeth sends a bad message to a prospective employer. It says "I came from poverty," which may make some prospective employers wary. So I believe all kids who need them should get braces, even if it means providing greater Medicaid funding. Straight teeth are as important as a good education and a presentable appearance.[/quote]
