It seems like you’re asking about a mixture of citron (or lemon) and toothpaste and its purported effects. Such mixtures are often shared as home remedies for cleaning, whitening, or other purposes. However, let’s clarify a few key points:
Common Claims for Mixing Lemon/Citron with Toothpaste

Fresh Breath: The citrus scent might provide temporary freshness.
Stain Removal for Cleaning: This mixture is sometimes suggested for cleaning stubborn stains on surfaces.
