A member asked:
How do i get my teeth back to normal after recovering from bulimia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your dentist: The high acidic content related to bulimia can cause significant destruction of tooth structure. You need to have a thorough clinical examination with the appropriate x-rays and any additional diagnostic data to diagnose your problem(s) by your dentist. Depending on the amount of destruction, your dentist can provide you with options.
