Binge and purge. is this harmful to my oral health?

Eats away at teeth: The stomach acid that will come up as u purge will gradually dissolve the enamel on the backside of your teeth due to recurrent exposure. As they begin to rot away other oral issues will become more apparent.

Yes.: The dental problem (acid eating away the enamel) may end up being the most visible result of binge and purge, but far from the most dangerous one.
