text: There is only one way - a dental handpiece with the right bur.  Go to another dentist.  Don't tell them the whole story, just say that there is still cement from your braces and you do not feel comfortable going back to the old dentist.  He should be willing to only charge you a small amount to remove the cement.\n\nSmall amounts of it may be able to be removed by a dental scaler, but it must be sharp.\n\nThere are no home remedies or answers for this one.  I'm sorry.  It is important to have it removed when you can because plaque can collect around the edges of the cement allowing cavities to form.
