Invisalign tray is only half way over my teeth. It doesn't fully cover my teeth. Will it still keep my teeth straight?

Asked By:chesley13 in Canada, KY

I had sore gums , it was being irriatated from my invisalign tray so i went to the orthodontist. He decided to cut a big portion of the top and bottom of the trays off so now it doesnt touch my gums it only covers half of my teeth. Not fully at all. I was wondering if that will still keep my teeth straight or will it effect anything?
