Symptom Breakdown
What you feel
Teeth becoming transparent at the biting edges, severe sensitivity to temperatures, yellowing as enamel thins out, dry mouth, and frequent sores or bleeding gums.
Why it happens
Frequent regurgitation or vomiting (bulimia) bathes teeth in strong stomach acid, rapidly dissolving the enamel. Severe nutritional restrictions (anorexia) weaken gum tissue and reduce protective saliva flow.
Clinical Advice
- Do not brush immediately after vomiting. The acid softens enamel, and brushing strips it away. Instead, rinse with water or a baking soda solution to neutralize the acid.
- Seek a supportive, non-judgmental dental and medical team to aid your overall recovery.
Treatment Note
Prescription fluoride therapies to remineralize enamel, composite bonding, porcelain crowns for structural repair, and targeted dry-mouth management.
