Is Invisalign a Risk for Root Resorption on a Tooth That Has Been Knocked out and Had a Root Canal?

About five years ago my upper front tooth was partially knocked out and i recieved a root canal. The tooth is still slightly loose but no signs of root resorption. There are some gaps in these front teeth i would like to fix with invisalign. Do i run a risk of root resorption by moving this tooth around?
