Answers:
Normally, the bulimic mouths that I have seen at work have had severe discoloration, terrible halitosis, and extensive decay!. It's a whole mouth thing, not just one tooth!. My sister also suffered from this and when she came in to the office you could tell she had had a problem with it!. If you only have one tooth that is hurting, if the rest of your teeth look fine and nothing else is bothering you, if your breath smells normal and there are no other problems I doubt your father will know, assuming that he is the one treating you!. It could also not be the bulimia that ate the enamel off your tooth, sometimes teeth have a weakness and that just happens!. Either way, you need to get it looked at!. Because if it gets infected and abscesses your father will definitely have a look!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
