Q: Will binge eating impact my teeth?
I've been a binge eater for years now and vomit after bingeing, I've tried to stop doing it but I just want help myself. I'm scared to see the dentist as I'm worried it has started to impact my teeth amongst other things? Will it have long lasting impact on my teeth?
