well, happy to hear that your teeth seem to be okay esthervirtue! you are so "lucky" in that aspect, as I said b/f and others have said so as well, most people w/ bulimia (85% or so) will have some kind of tooth decay.... do remember, that if enamel is being hurt it also counts as dental problems, not just actual cavities etc. My dentist suggeste using a soft bristle brush and regular tooth paste, not the whitening kind, to protect enamel erosion... I guess the part about how acid erodes enamel didn't cross her mind or it did but she didn't know what to say... she seems very competent though. she pretty much saved one of my teeth that looked like it had a 4 surface decay but apparently was even worse inside... imagine. well, long story short, it's $, it's pain, it's emotional torture to have to sit in a dentist's chair knowing WHY things are the way they are....sigh. oh yeah, flossing helps and also a mouth wash. okay, hope this helped some.... do go for regular check ups too if you can at all, I should have never waited as long as I did but I was scared.....
