I have gone through all the trays for my upper teeth and have another 12-14 on my lower teeth, to go. What is the next step after for my upper? I still have composite and pins left on upper as o continue on with the rest of my lower. I previously had concerns about my dentist not checking on my progress with invisalign. I'm starting to think he does not need to check up on me, after I paid him. I will make sure i voice my opinion and ask more questions. Just very frustrated here.

This is not good. In order for your aligners to properly move that tooth, the fit should be perfect. The fault is either you are not wearing your aligners religiously, each and every day , or do to a defect in your aligner fabrication. in either event, see your orthodontist asap.
