How can I hide my absolutely terrible teeth?!
Question: No, they aren't just a little out of line like most people's. My teeth are very slow to lose (I've only lost about 2 teeth on my own) and I'm 14. My ortho says that my teeth will probably take another year at the earliest before I can get braces. My teeth are really crowded and at strange angles. I like to say I'm fairly confident about my looks (despite wearing glasses and having crappy hair), but everytime I laugh I have to force myself to stop because it jjust looks terrible.

If your teeth are not decayed just crooked then you must learn to live with them for now. They are a part of who you are and most people will not care what your teeth look like (unless they are jerks!). Just be yourself and when the time comes you can get your braces. Just remember to keep them super clean and floss otherwise you will have worse problems than crooked teeth!
I was excactly where you are. I had HIDEOUS teeth and only lost a few. I suppose when your around the same people all the time they get used to your teeth. Just wait that year and you can get braces! You can't do much about hiding them. But dont worry, once you get braces your teeth will be stunning. :)
I had a front tooth that was twisted totally sideways and I got braces and it straightend out but while it was like that I just didn't obsess over it just ignore it
