Are your front teeth chipping for no apparent reason? In this episode of the Smile Sisters Podcast, we dive into a critical but often overlooked cause of tooth damage—eating disorders. If you or someone you know struggles with bulimia, acid reflux, or frequent vomiting, this video will explain how these conditions weaken enamel, increase tooth sensitivity, and lead to chipping and breakage over time.
We’ll cover:
✅ Why your front teeth are chipping and what it means for your dental health
✅ How bulimia and acid erosion affect your enamel and overall smile
✅ Why dentists can help, not judge—it’s okay to be honest about your situation
✅ Treatment options to strengthen and restore your teeth
If you’ve noticed chipping, thinning, or sensitivity in your front teeth, understanding the root cause is the first step to protecting your smile. You’re not alone—this is more common than you think, and there are solutions!
