Gaps Remaining After Orthodontic Treatment

TuiArchers
I had an incomplete orthodontic treatment when I was younger. Im in my 20s n I had another orthodontic treatment to complete it (there were gaps n 1 tooth wasn't angled properly). The ortho recommended that I do the upper arch only, n I took the braces off a few months ago n I still have 2 slight gaps EVEN after putting veneers on. Is this normal? I've been finding that my orthodontist is an extreme minimalist, and I find it ridiculous because I got braces on again because I wanted it perfect.
