Let me try to give you an answer.  It is difficult to see just what is
going on because of the poor focus of the photo.  There seems to be a
small space (black triangle) which is not filled totally by the gingival
papilla.  This may well be trivial, as most of my patients will show a
space of this size and location little if at all.  But in a patient with
a space such as this between upper teeth and with a naturally high "lip
line" it could well be unacceptable.
    Sometimes these papillae can be re-shaped to fill the space by
judicious countouring of the surfaces of the two adjacent teeth.  This
usually requires ADDITIONAL, rather than less contour.
    In your case (again, I'm a bit unsure based on the photo) the crowns
already look somewhat bulky to me.  So increasing the contour to
compress of fill the space may give you bulky, un-natural looking
crowns.  Some patients may find this preferable to the space.  Most
dentists however, familiar with some of the problems secondary to
over-contoured crowns, would rather leave you with a bit of a space.
    Your concerns should be discussed with your dentist.  It may be that a
small plastic procedure by a periodontist would give you a better result
without needing to resort to overcontoured crowns.

Then again.....for $20K per patient, I might be willing
to listen to a little whining and complaining.

Sometimes you get what you pay for, sometimes you get less.

 I don't plan on taking

In my defense... I was approximately 3 (maybe 4) feet away from the mirror

You can see it from perhaps 6 or 7 feet away.

Looks different today but still a little weird.
