Hate the feel of attachment glue/resin smeared on my teeth. Any suggestions?

Asked By:MaryDublin in Dublin, CA

I just had attachments added to my teeth. I was expecting bumps, but not how awful the resin smeared all over my teeth feels. I complained about my teeth feeling rough on the front, the bottom, and even the back of one tooth, and he tried to polish it off, but the rough feeling remains. I'm concerned this may be bad for my teeth. I also worry that the heavy-duty polishing/grinding required to remove this stuff will harm the enamel. Will my teeth ever feel smooth again?
