Answers:
just dont try and have so many!. lemons and limes are acidic and get erode the enmael on your teeth!.!.!.i'm not to sure about your braces tho!.
Have a glass of water after and swish the water around, this will help wash away the acid!.
Ask your orthodontist on what they can do to your braces!.
But like i said, have a glass of water after and dont brush or teeth for at 30mins after you have had a lemon or lime! your enamel will be soft and brushing your teeth straight away can soften the enamel!.

NO, NO, NO!!!
Please!.!.!.!.the acid in the limes and lemons directly on your teeth will eat away the enamel!!!
Really, stop doing that now!.!.!.!.and remember all the citric acids are bad for the enamel (like those in soft drinks and sport drinks and prepared teas) You should think about using a product called MI paste (google it, avail on ebay) to help re-build the enamel!.!.!.!.
Don't just believe me, ask your dentist!Www@Answer-Health@Com
