    Actually, stomach acid could ruin your teeth longer that it would to your throat. I am more concerned as to why you are vomiting. Do you have acid reflux or something else?

    its called bulimia
    and its ruined my life.

    the last time i had to get my teeth fixed it cost £700.
    the time before that £500.

    honestly? it doesnt take that long.
    remember the trick of putting a tooth in soda? and the next day its pretty much dissolved?
    yeah. thats what you're doing to your teeth.
    and if you brush them straight after
    you're just rubbing the acid in.

    Don't eat til you're uncomfortably full and you won't have this problem!

    eleni is right. It really doesn't take long at all.

    Stop while you can. You can't replace enamel. I've learned the hard way. It's terrible. Acids weaken teeth, it may not show its ugly face now, but trust me, I did that when I was in my early 20's, and now I'm paying the piper. I'm 32. I hope to god that I live to be 100, but I know that my teeth won't.

    Eleni is so spot on, it doesn't even matter if you "try" to brush it away.... Stop now.

    Eat better, walk/run/exercise more - it's really not worth it. ROOT CANALS are big stinkers.
