Are New Trays Suppose to Feel Like They Don't Fit Properly?

January 24, 2012
Asked By:MaiJ

I just moved onto my 2nd tray of Invisalign. Is it normal for the trays to feel like they they don't fit the right way? It's not as form fitting like the first tray was. When I bite down I can feel the trays going closer to my teeth.
