Lemon juice is acidic and could cause more damage. Learn proper brushing and flossing technique. Get scaling and Polishing done from a dentist. Feel free to consult Laser Smile Care Centre. God bless u.

Dental consultation is required to rule out the cause. And then accordingly go foe treatment if required. If there's no cavity then you have to improve your brushing technique.
