I've always needed braces since I was a kid, but my parents weren't able to pay for it, and were actually advised by a dentist when I was about 10 that if they can't afford it, just to wait until I was old enough to pay for it myself if it was still bothering me (because my case wasn't really bad).
I guess wanting a prettier smile is vain in a way, but so what if I want to improve the way I look?! Its no different to putting makeup on to make your self look nicer. And if I were that vain, wouldn't one think I would be complaining, worrying about what people think about the way I look with these metal things on my teeth? lol.
Agggrrrrh!.... this coming from a woman, who's own brother paid for his already perfect gorgeous wife to get a boob job - I've never heard her critisize them for their decision!!
