Invisalign large black triangles, food traps, and gum recession (Photo)

TeethLayman
I'm a 22 y/o male on tray 26/45 of invisalign. Unfortunately, large black triangles/food traps have appeared. I knew of the risk, as I had some slight gum recession beforehand, but these are way worse than expected. I'm afraid they are causing irreversible damage. Hopefully the photos illustrate my concerns. It's hard to tell, but my central and lateral top incisors literally don't touch. My bottom left canine and lateral incisor also have 0 contact right now. Thank you all.
