I finished invisalign and removed attachments a week ago. I'm waiting for consultation (10 days) to measure for bridges on the back of my lower t. The problem is since the attachments were removed, the last tray don't put any pressure and it's ripping. I can see that one of the tooth is already moving back.

There is no danger at all to the crowns. They move just like regular teeth. As a top 1% myself, I would say changing every week is fine so long as you only have them out to eat and brush. 22 hours a day without fail. If you can't do that then plan on two weeks per tray.
