Why are my teeth matte/dull after braces removal?

Removing the bonding from the tooth after braces can leave them looking matte. usually this is because a course polisher was used. usually your teeth will rehydrate and that shine will come back after a few weeks. prescription strength fluoride allied to the teeth can also help. if that doesn't make them shiny again its as simple as going back to the dentist to have them polished them with a finer grit of polisher and you will have the shine back!
