I’m bulimic and I need to go to the dentist. Something is wrong with my teeth. I think it is because of how much I purge. I know it’s important, but I am terrified of the dentist. \u00a0What I really want to do is not go, but my mouth is hurting. Is there a way to home treat this?<\/p>\n

Brittney,<\/p>\n

I’m sorry you’re hurting. You’re probably right that the purging is causing problems in your teeth. \u00a0The acid from the vomit will eat away at the enamel on your teeth. That leaves you susceptible to decay, gum disease, and infection.<\/p>\n

I realize that you are scared of the dentist, but to protect your teeth, you’ll likely need some dental crowns. \u00a0However, there is a way you can get the treatment you need without having to worry about pain.<\/p>\n

See if your dentist is a sedation dentist<\/a>. If not, then you can do an internet search for a dentist who uses sedation. They can give you a pill that will make you sleepy and you can have all your work done without feeling a thing.<\/p>\n

Be sure to let your dentist know about the bulimia. It will help him no how to help you.<\/p>\n
