Asked By:kubsterr in Delaware, DE

Im on my 8th tray and the bottom aligner has the defect on the right side 3rd tooth from the back. My dentist is closed for the next 3 days and I don't know if I should try wearing it or keep wearing the previous tray. It seems to fit but idk if the plastic being bent inward will mess with alignment.
