Hopefully this will attach the normal behavior again on your element 

             $("Your_selectors").on('click', function(){
                    $(this).trigger('click');
                });

I suggest the use of common class with event delegation on() instead of detaching/attaching the event every time, you could give your button a common class example click_event and remove/add class as you want like :

$(".dt-buttons button").each(function(){
    $(this).removeClass("click_event");
});

//When you want to attach the event 
$('your_selector').addClass("click_event");
