The answer is no. You need to be sure about the diagnosis; space " diastemas" between teeth can be fixed with Invisalign. Black triangles are related to bone loss and periodontal disease. It is a completely different approach, and most of the time, you should need a secondary-level treatment, which means a specialist, not a general dentist
nvisalign can help reduce the appearance of black triangles, but it may not completely eliminate them. The effectiveness depends on the severity and the specific cause of the black triangles. A comprehensive exam done by the orthodontist, which includes bone levels and gum health assessment, will determine how much of the correction can be achieved. Other factors, such as teeth shape and overall oral health, will also be considered to provide a clearer understanding of the expected results for your specific situation.
It may help but it will not fix it completely
Maybe. Check with an orthodontist.
I have had limited success reducing black triangles. This is mainly because of the shape of the teeth. One successful technique I’ve seen to reduce black triangles is the use of dermal fillers injected into the gums between the affected teeth
Yes, Absolutely. Invisalign clear aligners are very effective in treating and eliminating black triangles.
Hi!
Yes. absolutely - it has to be combined with IPR (Inter Proximal Reduction) which is a grind and polish in between the teeth that have the black triangles.

Not usually. A periodontal graft along with veneers or crowns is usually the only way
