Should the Invisalign Tray Edges Be Sharp?

November 11, 2009
Asked By:southpatriot08 in parkersburg, wv

I started my Invisalign treatment yesterday.Well yesterday, there were no gaps or edges sticking out. Today, the bottom tray has a small gap between my teeth because the edge has curved up and is kind of sharp. My tongue keeps rubbing against it and now has a painful blister, is there anything I can do with the tray so this doesn't keep happening?
