Lemons, like vinegar, are weakly acidic. As long as you only used a little juice, it would be okay. but I wouldn't advise bathing in it. Mind you, I ate through an entire lemon tree one summer, and my teeth are great.

What's better for cleaning teeth is brushing wiuth baking soda. A dentist had me wetting my brush in peroxide nd then dipping in baking soda and it really helped my teeth. And it kills bateria in your mouth very well. Lemons are very harsh on your teeth.

i think most people use toothpaste.

Juice of any kind is bad for your teeth. Regular juices have way too much sugar. That is why it is advised to drink water after drinking juice. Citric juices, especially, lemons are have high acid content and will eat the enamel off your teeth. So, I guess lemons will take off the stains, but you will eventually, have a worse situation. The peroxide and baking soada mixture is an excellent way to make your teeth white.

No, the citric acid will just wear down the protective enamel on your teeth. Commercial break: BANG!! Use Rapid White Tooth whitening system for 1 week and notice the difference! Back to the show.

You should never use lemon directly on the teeth. If you are suffering from any gum problem you can take vitamin C tablets after the advice of a doctor. If you are suffering from stains on the teeth,get your teeth cleaned,i.e scaling,maximum of the problem will resolve. If stains are not removed with scaling it means they are intrinsic stains,then bleaching paste or whitening paste will not give maximum benefits,may be your teeth will become little lighter to existing shade.

No!! The acis in the lemons break down your enamel and if you use too much hydrogen peroxide you'll get hairy tounge, which basically is the papilla in your toungue become enlarged. The best way to get rid of staining is to go to your dentist and get a cleaning.
