In actuality it would be very difficult for someone to get an offer from a law firm, accounting firm, investment firm or banking institution if they showed up at the interview with a blinged out grill. Right or wrong, this is a reality, and they would be doing their students a disservice if they didn't prepare them for this now.
I see your point, but I think that when you're a kid you should be able to dress crazy if you want. It's the one time in most people's lives that they are NOT expected to conform to the relatively conservative dress codes of most employers. Why not let them have some fun?

I can't understand why anyone would even want to wear them... didn't we all hate having braces? I sleep with a mouthguard because I grind my teeth. It's not fun. It probably gives them a speech impediment, too. Interesting post on the potential health effects, CT4. Not something I ever thought of, but after reading your post, also not surprising at all.

And I freak out if I bump a fork off of my tooth or get a piece of tin foil in my mouth- I couldn't imagine having some kind of crappy metal like that in my mouth all the time. And I wonder if they rust?
