Completed braces treatment but unhappy with results

As you can tell by the title, I’m not really happy with the results of my braces treatment. I added pictures with text for more context.

My biggest issue is the gaps/black triangles that were left behind. I honestly thought those would either be fixed or at least way less noticeable by the end of treatment, but they still stand out a lot to me. My midline is also off center, which bothers me too.

When I smile, I usually smile more with my top teeth and kind of push my tongue against the back of them so the pink from my tongue hides the little gaps a bit. I know that probably sounds weird, but maybe the pictures explain it better.

I’m wondering if I should look into more treatment. If so, what would be best? I’m leaning toward Invisalign because I really don’t want to go through braces again, but I’m worried Invisalign might not be able to fix the issues I have since braces seem more precise for detailed movements.

What do you guys think about my smile/results? Would you look into refinements if you were me?
