Forget about it: Talk to your dentist. In the end, this is less expensive.

Bad idea: Do not put lemon juice on your teeth. These acidic juices can cause irreversible damage to your enamel. The baking soda is ok to use to brush your teeth.

Serious damage: Please please for the love of all that is holy, don't do that. Use either professional whitening or over the counter products like crest white strips. You can cause serious damage to your teeth and end up in a world of hurt. Go see a dentist.
