I had bulimia Will the yellow marks disappear by teeth whitening?

Q. Hello I had bulimia in the past and my teeth are heavily damaged, the front teeth especially have lost enamel and left ugly yellow marks that brings down my confidence. I am considering teeth whitening. Would this make the yellow marks disappear? Thank you for your time

A. I have treated a number of bullimic patients and if all the enamel has been removed the teeth will not whiten,  better option is bonded fillings or porcelain veneers or crowns.
