Most important is to seek treatment for your Bulimia. This can be devastating to your health. Regarding your teeth make sure you are rinsing your mouth out with water as often as possible during any vomiting episodes. It is important to neutralize the acid as much as possible. Do not brush your teeth vigorously with tooth paste, this could be too abrasive in combination with the acid environment and cause additional erosion. Seek treatment with a dentist to restore the chipped teeth. Dr. Lemongello
