Can I get teeth whitening and bonding after my Invisalign treatment ends?

Q.
hi, I am almost finished with my invisalign treatment and am very happy with the straightening results. However it has created more problems for me. As the teeth have moved, stains on the edges of teeth that were tucked behind others have appeared. I am 38 so they have been there a long time. I have been trying whitening toothpastes etc but not noticing any difference. Also on the front tooth, the edge has been revealed to be slightly ‘chipped’, it’s very rough, can this too be fixed? I don’t want to still be embarrassed with my new smile. My dentist says he will replace fillings that I had on my front tooth when I broke it as it is not the right shape for my new teeth. Will he be able to do that before I start wearing retainers, I don’t want to wait possibly 2 or 3 years before I have the fillings replaced but obviously this will change the shape of the retainer. please help! thank you

I would really need to see you to give you the best options but some re shaping or bonding may solve your problems you will need new retainers if the tooth shapes are changed.
