57012635We all want white teeth, and according to all the information out there, they are myriad ways we can get white teeth.  However, some of those methods can wind up being more damage.  Sometimes you have to think — do you want white teeth or healthy teeth?  Unfortunately, where this little cosmetic procedure is concerned, sometimes the “natural” ways can be the most damaging.

What do I mean specifically? Well, there is a growing trend wherein people are rubbing lemons on their teeth, or using lemon juice, as a means to whiten them.

The problem here is that you will be trading the problem of white teeth for a bigger issue. This method can actually hurt your teeth. Lemons are, of course, high in citric acid, which can wear away the enamel of your teeth.

A far better natural method would be mixing baking soda with water, and brushing your teeth with this mixture.
