My gum is white/purple? Is that normal?

Question

I am in tray 25/30 recently I started noticing when I put my trays on the gun above one tooth turns white/purple. Is that from pressure? Is it normal? Should I see my orthodontist?

no, it is not an issue . it is because of pressure of tray on gums. many brands like kline covers more gum area as compare to invisalign . and its common in those trays.

It sounds like the tray is putting pressure on your gum tissue.  The trays ideally should only place pressure on your teeth.  I recommend visiting your orthodontist and having them take a look at what is going on.  Most likely it is an easy fix by trimming some of the aligner.
