You are right vomiting is detrimental for your teeth and will cause them to erode very rapidly. Unfortunately nothing can be done until you stop. Fluoride (in toothpaste or mouthwash) will make your teeth more resistant to the acid but this will only slow the process.

The damage can be repaired by a dentist but if you keep throwing up then the teeth will continue to erode around his/her repairs so that they stand proud of the tooth or just fall out.

It's your vomiting or your teeth I'm afraid :( Maybe you could get help for your nervous disorder. I don't know what that would be but I'm sure there must be therapies and stuff for it.

lots of flouride should strenghten ur teeth and there's mouthwash that strengthens ur enamel.

use a fluoride rinse 3 times a day. they are available at any grocery store.

and stop throwing up. ever thought of eating right?

u just need to start brushing them more!!!Go to the dentist and see what he thinks and what he says do!!U might have to get fillings but thats ok i have fillings to and they don't bother u so don't be scared

First of all why are you throwing up so much? are you bulemic? if not then you should see your doctor because that is not healthy. but the best way to make them stronger would be to 1) make sure you are not drinking sodas . they have lots of acids that break dow your toth enamel. 2) try to buy a toth paste that has contains a lot of flouride b/c it makes your teeth stronger. and of course calcium drink lots of milk!!! and this should do the trick, but you need to get your throwig up under control because your teeth will never get better if you dont stop vomiting!!! i hope i have helped you!!

Try using Sensodyne ProNamel toothpaste. It's meant to strengthen enamel for people with sensitive teeth, so it might help to strengthen yours as well. Talk to your dentist - (s)he might have some other ideas for you.

Nervous disorder my butt. If you really are not lying then try and go see a doctor about that because all you can do is slow down the wear and tear. That is why bulimic kids have A LOT of dental problems.

You can't strengthen your enamel of you DON'T HAVE ONE! You need to get that Nervous Disorder fixed with medication. If you keep it up you will probably have NO teeth to protect about 5 years from now. Then you will look like a toothless grandma. Stomach acid is VERY ACIDIC and can eat your teeth away whether you strengthen them with mouthwash or not.
