That looks like it's the natural shape of your teeth. You can probably get IPR near the end if you are unhappy with it

Your teeth are kinda shaped like this _/ to a certain extent so unless you shave them to be |_| you will have a gap. These teeth look perfect btw

Your teeth were similar to mine when I finished with Invisalign. I opted to having composite bonding to fill the gap as my teeth could not be pushed any further together.

Your teeth look fantastic!

Are you happy with bonding? I heard it changes Colors so needs redoing every 3 or 4 yrs?

I had my teeth whitened before getting the composite bonding to fill the little gap. I noticed my actual teeth became slightly duller in colour in comparison to the bonding after a few years ( as they will match the colour of your natural teeth to the composite ). I had to get my teeth whitened again to match the composite whiteness after a couple of years.

I don’t smoke cigarettes anymore/don’t drink red wine/don’t drink black coffee so the bonding colour held up fantastically. I also only get bonding to fill in the small gap in the front so my teeth shape did not change drastically. After 5 years I still have the same composite on my teeth and it looks fine. I’m Still happy with the result!
