    What about lemon juice eating at your teeth? I read soemwhere that drinking lemon juice straight can increase cavities.

    Hi Selina

    Lemon juice is more acidic beverage & lemon typically has a PH bwt 2.0-2.6. High consumption of lemon juice can leads to a condition called tooth erosion (outermost layer of enamel slowly removes down). Lemon juice also irritates the gums & its softening the enamel this can cause tooth sensitivity. If u increasing the consumption of lemon juice can cause tooth decay & cavities.

    if you brush your teeth with sodium bicarbonate it will neutralise any acid in the mouth including acid plaque. i havent used toothpaste for years,its rubbish full of g.m.o. sugars,aspartame( a neuro toxin) and fluorine a waste product from the atomic and alluminum corporations and companys.if you like the taste of peppermint you can put one drop of peppermint oil on the toothbrush as well! please dont demonise lemons!

    Hi Edgedeva

    But lemon is good for whitening the teeth when you used very little amount of juice with salt. Try brush with lemon juice with salt 15 days once. This gives naturally whitening to the teeth. In above discussion i mentioned when you increase the intake then only you will face such effects.

    Lemon juice is healthy with Vitamin C. However if you have hyper acidity, you should stay away from it. Lemon juice and other citrus juice will increase your acidity.
