Orthodontist drilled gaps in bottom teeth for Invisalign. Now treatment is over and gaps haven't closed - advice?

Hi, and thank you for your question. Unfortunately after completion of Invisalign some spaces may remain, but they should be closed by your Invisalign doctor. Your concerns of food getting trapped should never be dismissed because aside from aesthetics, it can create decay and periodontal issues in the future. The solution is to re-scan or re-impress you, and send back to Invisalign to create new aligners for finishing. With an Invisalign lite case, there should be no charge, if this is the first time your case is being sent for revision. In almost 20 years of doing Invisalign, I have never charged a patient additional fees for a correction or refinement. Most dentists will not either. You will have to discuss it with your orthodontist, but he or she should be amenable to making you happy. Best of luck.
