Started my 7th Invisalign tray and it’s not feeling tight. Advice?

vu66Dec 7, 2017

Once I moved to the 7th one, it felt lose and not form fitting like my other previous trays. I can notice that on some teeth there are spaces. This makes my teeth not touch the bottom of the invisalign tray. Also, I have noticed that on my two front upper teeth that a gap has been forming. I’m not sure why this is happening but I’m worried.
