Q. Hi i have secretly made myself vomit occasionally in the last 4 years,i have stopped now but my four front top teet are translucent nearly half way and its raelly bothering me,i have never been to apart from this i have never had a problem with my teeth ever what is happening and what can i do?

A. I am glad you have managed to stop being sick.  The acid from your stomach has dissolved your front teeth ( the bottom teeth are protected by your tongue when you are sick) and may have affected your other upper teeth as well.  The teeth need to be restored either with composite filling materials or porcelain veneers and a guard made for you to use if you start to be sick in the future.  I have successfully treated patgients with this problem with minimally invasive dentistry.  If you wish to have a consultation with me please contact my surgery.
