Dr. Hall,
I have severe enamel erosion on the inside of my teeth. What would protect my teeth better, bonding or caps? Can you recommend a cosmetic dentist in Simi Valley, CA.

Tami,
For the inside of your teeth, you would need porcelain crowns. Bonding just wouldn’t hold up well enough on the inside of your teeth to do the job.
And good cosmetic dentists are simply not common enough to find one in every community. My recommendation if you’re in Simi Valley is to see Dr. Dell Goodrick in Santa Clarita, which isn’t that far. He does beautiful work. Otherwise, there are also really good cosmetic dentists in Pasadena and Beverly Hills. See our list of Southern California cosmetic dentists.
And for the benefit of other readers, loss of enamel on the inside of your teeth is an unavoidable consequence of bulimia, in addition to a shortening of your teeth. Expert cosmetic dentists are trained to treat bulimia, and they are trained to be extremely confidential about your case.
