Q. hi, i suffered with bulimia for 5 years and have not made myself sick for almost 4 years now, as a result i have now got gum diesese and have gaps inbetween my teeth, i also have clear patches on my 2 front top teeth and have a large white patch which my parents were told was because i had too much calcium as a child, im 28 and am now very insecure about my teeth and would like to know whats the best option for me?

A. You would need to consult a dentist for a full check up and x-rays so that they can make sure your teeth are healthy. From there you can book in with a cosmetic dentist to see what can be done aesthetically.

Kind regards
