Is it possible to have your teeth pulled, even if they are in transit to being irreparable?

Let%26#039;s say this person had an eating disorder, like bulimia, and was convinced that their teeth were going to need to be pulled eventually. What would this person do? Surely a doctor would advise the patient that before considering pulling the tooth, they would recommend procedures (costly ones, at that) to repair the damage.





Could a patient then ask the doctor, or in this case a dentist, to remove the teeth because of possible (very appreciable risk over time) annihilation of all teeth?





I ask this because I know my teeth are eventually going to be pulled, they are in disrepair right now but not altogether foregone. I%26#039;d give them a year or two before every one of them needs to be capped. And even then, following the capping, I%26#039;ll need something similar to dentures.





Is it best to start now? I%26#039;ve been trying so... hard to fix this problem... I hate myself for vomiting, yet ironically I feel like I want to vomit more because of all the damage I%26#039;ve done.





Help me, I beg of you.

I doubt any dentist will pull your teeth just because of how they %26#039;may%26#039; be in the future...





You need to start at the root of the problem... the vomiting. Can you talk to someone about it? And maybe get some help? There%26#039;s nothing better than your own teeth for eating, speaking, etc... While I commend you for being honest, I also think you%26#039;re asking for help since you%26#039;ve posted your question here on Yahoo.....





Once the vomiting stops, so will the %26#039;damage%26#039; you%26#039;ve done to your teeth... and who knows... maybe they aren%26#039;t as bad as you think they are...





I wish you the best of luck!
