For one thing, your brakes may squeal for reasons other than wear; there is a paste that can be applied if wear is not the problem. If your pads are worn to the point of needing replacement (assuming they're original), your should get a warning light triggered by brake wear sensors in the pads.
If your pads are worn to the point of needing replacement, you also most likely need new rotors as well. You don't turn MB rotors.
And if your did get a pad wear warning, you'll also need new wear sensors for the new pads.
