I'm Ready to Move Onto my Fifth Tray but the Top Tray Won't Grip Onto the Back Two Teeth on the Right. What Should I Do?

With Invisalign, sometimes you do get a 'bounce' if you will, on the very last teeth.  Unless specific movements have been requested for the back molar teeth, this slight lack of grip does not affect the movements in the front.

 

I just had this happen today to a patient and I explained to her that it is normal and should go away.

Bring this up with your orthodontist at your next visit, she/he is the one who is most familiar with your planned treatment and can advise you best. 

It is best if you return to your provider and let he or she take a look at it ASAP.  Sometimes the teeth don't move as projected and the trays need to be remade - "case refinement"
