DIY whitening kit: ₹0
Fixing enamel erosion + sensitivity: ₹15,000+
Telling me “I saw it on Instagram”: Priceless. For me. Painful. For you.
Quick science class:
Lemon juice pH = 2
Your enamel starts dissolving at pH 5.5
Your logic after this hack = 0
So no, you’re not “whitening”. You’re doing a chemistry lab accident in your mouth.
Dear Patients,
When we say “don’t do this” we’re not gatekeeping white teeth.
We’re gatekeeping your ability to eat ice cream without crying at 2AM.
Sincerely,
Every dentist who’s tired of fixing this 😮💨
