Why is my tray popping off my tooth?

NanoGirl21Feb 23, 2015
I have been in tray 1 for 3 weeks. I was in that tray for that long because I was away from home and didn't have my tray 2. When I went to switch to tray 2 my trays went on easily. However, my last teeth in the back of the top does not fit. I do have a crown on that tooth. The tray is super big and it hangs down. If I bite down it makes a suction sound. When I open my mouth the tray pops off that tooth. I'm assuming this isn't mornal. Is this okay? Any advice on how to fix this?

While the implants are healing, you can get invisalign and move the teeth into the ideal position. Ideally, the crowns should be placed after the invisalign treatment. Your treating doctor should estimate the ideal position of the teeth and consider the size of the future crowns.

Hello, MaryDublin.  It may just take some time to get used to the feeling.  If after a few days or a week, it doesn't feel better, I would suggest contacting your orthodontist and scheduling an appointment to go in and have it checked.  Another thing, are you wearing you...

It is not a normal scenario to skip trays. You should ask your dentist what was his reasoning behind doing so.
