I have the same problem. I think it looks great though. Only u will notice the little things that aren't perfect. I'm about to call it after these refinements too.

funny you say that everyone I mention it too say they are fine they see no issues even the dentist himself, he said everything looks great and in regards to the tooth in question it's just the size/shape, also the pic needs to be flipped actually lol i took it with my mobile phone front facing camera , maybe ill consider veneers for that one tooth maybe I'll just call it quits and deal with it if its not that bad

Long overdue update

invisalign was done months ago and this is pretty much the final deal, still not satisfied with one tooth is stubborn and according to the dentist there isn't much more that can be done because ti's the shape/size of the tooth might have to consider veneers .... not sure what to think but that's pretty much it i wear my retainers every night because I've noticed a shift can happen if not worn for , They definitely look better than before, maybe it's the shape/size after all , maybe I just got jibbed

I say if you're not happy than keep going until you are happy. You spent all that money so I totally think you should have a happy result. Let them do refinements until they get it right. You should have NO spaces, hence the whole point of doing all of this. You should ask to see your results on the computer, Invisalign gives them this and they should of shown you, so definitely ask to see it!

I agree with Kristen37 that you should be happy, but not everyone can get all the gaps closed, so although that is almost always the result, it isn't the case 100% of the time. There are what are called "tooth size discrepancies" that can make it an impossibility to close all the gaps in some cases, because from what I understand, the size of the teeth don't make it a possibility to fit around the arch and keep the upper and lower jaw in proper relationship.  An orthodontist can usually tell you if this is the case before you start treatment, when they are doing the treatment planning and looking at the models of your teeth and your x-rays. Of course I don't know if that is what is going on here or not, but it sounds like that might be what the doctor is trying to communicate. It would be worth asking for more clarification on, and seeking a second opinion if you aren't comfortable with the explanation given.

Thanks all for the replies, I can not sit here and say no improvement took place , improvement did take place, but now what I envisioned,I'm going to be patient and wait until the refinement trays arrive and then take a look at the models that will be presented then,and discuss this again with my dentist I understand no results can be guaranteed, but I wish he would've had an in depth conversation with me before the treatment was started , anyways I'm not going to to jump to conclusions, he did take impressions and refinement trays should be on the way, lets wait and see maybe things will turn around,trying to have a positive outlook... I feel like it's almost there but needs few more trays, at this point I'm not even concerned about the gap between the 2 centrals I do believe that might no go away due to the shape of my teeth but they should be aligned properly , I did ask maybe we can explore shaving off some of the centrals at least to minimize the gap and can possibly improve their appearance, he said it's possible maybe 1 millimeter or so Thanks guy for the inputs I wish I had pre treatment pictures I will take some next time I see the dentist
