Week 11 out of 22, now on my packages they say Passive.

Question

Question: Now on my packages they say Passive. That word confuses me since I'm only halfway through and still much more movement is needed.

It does happen at certain points in time, that you will have 'Passive' Aligners.  However, this would apply only to one dental arch (either the upper or lower).  It would not be common that both would be passive (unless you have an open bite that the Orthodontist is trying to correct).

	Whenever there are any doubts or questions, best thing to do is to ask your treating doctor, as she/he would be the best person to address any specific treatment issues pertaining to your individual case.

You may need to return to your provider and discuss how your treatment goals and expectations don't meet with  your goals.
