Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice (just a few drops)
- A small cup of water (for rinsing)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the baking soda with the fresh lemon juice until it forms a smooth paste.
- Dip your toothbrush into the mixture and gently brush your teeth for about 1 minute.
- Avoid brushing too hard, as lemon is acidic.
- Spit it out and rinse your mouth thoroughly with water.
- Use plain water to rinse again to ensure no acid remains on teeth.
- For fresher breath, you can gargle lightly with water afterward.
- Use this trick only once or twice a week to avoid enamel damage.
👉 This natural remedy may help whiten teeth and freshen breath, but it should not replace daily dental care or visits to your dentist.
Would you like me to also write a short disclaimer at the end (for safety), since lemon and baking soda can be harsh if overused?
