There’s a black triangle between #9 and #10. I think I made a mistake in choosing my dentist but I’m at the end of refinements, maybe too late to switch. I’m not confident in my dentist performing IPRs based on what’s done to my bottom teeth. I am concerned it will change the shape of the tooth and look very unsymmetrical vs the other lateral incisor. Should I just finish the refinement and get Bioclear/bonding later, or I should get IPR to reduce the black triangle?
