I have really mixed feelings about this story. Hermie the Turtle got braces to correct a jaw alignment problem so he can eat better. I'm happy for Hermie, really I am; however, I am a little peeved that Hermie can get specialized dental care when there are so many kids in this country who can't get in to see a dentist because their insurance won't cover it or they just can't afford the fees. I really feel for those kids. I would have to drive more than two hours to find a dentist who accepts Medicaid here in Missouri, unless it was a medical emergency. But really, congrats Hermie.
