Right Central incisor has slight attrition. Do you recommend bonding or contouring to fix my tooth?

WanderLA
I am near the end of my Invisalign treatment and through the correction process I realized that my right central incisor has attrition (wear). In means of correcting this issue, I asked both my orthodontist and regular dentist (who does cosmetic dentistry) what they would recommend as a solution. My orthodontist recommended bonding, as it is less intrusive, and my regular dentist told me she would be able to fix it with some contouring. Any advice and or suggestions? I would like nice teeth.
