My teeth are damaged due to bulimia, can you advise how to restore them?

Monday, April 4th, 2011
Q.

Hello, I used to have lovely straight and pearly white teeth.People used to comment on them all of the time. But for the past couple of years I have suffered terribly from bulimia and my wisdom teeth are coming in.
My once beautiful teeth have discoloured, the enamel and actual teeth have worn down and my front teeth have had a few mm chiped off them too from the acid erosion.
This combined with my wisdom teeth moving and therefore overcrowding my bottom jaw is extremely distressing.
Im not sure what action I can take to improve my teeth and hopefully restore them visually to their former glory.Ofcourse, I have stopped vomiting, but the effects are still plain to see.

What would you advise?

Kind regards

A.

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011
Q.

Iv been bulimic for 10 years and even though I have managed to reduce the episodes a lot, my teeth have suffered. I have been to the dentist 3 times this year about my concern. (Red, swollen and burning gums, recession, constant dry mouth etc) and have been given very little guidance or options. Is there a dentist you could recommend in london that could help me sort this out, im getting a bit desperate.

Can my wife receive cheaper treatment?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
Dear Dr Solanki – My wife (32) has suffered in the past with bilemia (from 13 to approx 25 yrs old), and this has caused her terrible probelms with her teeth. She has lost most of her back teeth and her front teeth are very weak with fillings and cracked in places, which to some extent has caused her to be depressed resulting in mild return of the eating disorder. She/we are on benefits (child tax credits) but we both are also working and she holds an NHS card – we unfortunately just cannot afford to have the neccessary dental work done, quoted at £7k, can you please give us any advice on how and if we could recieve and help from the NHS or where we might find treatment cheaper?,

What would be the best plan of action to sort out my teeth and get my confidence back?

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I suffered with Bulimia for over 10 years from a very early age. Im now 25, have children of my own and I’m currently planning my wedding but dont feel confident smiling in front of a camera, let alone talking to people face to face. All my teeth are visably thinning and discoloured. Ive always had a gap at the front of my teeth that Ive never been happy with but this has appeared to widen because the deterioration of the teeth from behind. I would also need the bottom four (in the centre at the very front of the bottom row) teeth removed as not only are they an eyesore as they are not in line at all with the rest of the teeth in my mouth and are in poor condition. I dont know what to do, I am constantly left with a reminder of the illness I have overcome and I would just like to get my confidence back again and completely leave this chapter behind me. What would be my best plan of action? Is there any UK clinic that specializes in helping those recovering or recovered from Eating disorders. I have not been to the Dentist for a very long time as I’m afraid of the news I will be told and the likelyhood I wont be able to afford to fix it. I look forward to your response, thanks for your time.,

Can you regrow tooth enamel?

Thursday, June 24th, 2010
Q.
Hi Dr Patel, I don’t want to take up much of your time, as I have already done some research in this area. Having had bulimia for many years I’ve worn away some enamel and am very worried about the overall state if my teeth. It’s a very expensive solution I am aware of that. But would much prefer composite veneers if anything, as I do not want my teeth filed for porcelain veneers, I’ve heard terrible stories. I would never have that done. I have heard of something where they can regrow enamel by applying something to the tooth. Can you comment? Do you know anything about this? I am determined to try to find a fix. I had once ‘beautiful & perfect’ teeth, with many many comments on how nice they were from friends and also my dentists! Now I’m concious of them. It’s down to an injury and as a result I’ve been grinding my teeth out of frustration from not being able to exercise and chewing sweets and crunching things I know are bad for my teeth. I’ve lost a lot of bulk from the appearance of them. Need a bit of help and/or advice if poss…?,
