Was it smart to skip a tray? Will the teeth adjust to the new tray or should I call my dentist and have him order me a new one?

I accidentally stepped on my tray while driving and it bent it to the point it no longer fits in my mouth. Instead of calling my dentist and bothering him with the hassle I called my uncle in FL to overnight my next set. I got it today and just put it in and the tray doesn't fit all of the teeth correctly. I'm kind of worried this will mess up my teeth and the remaining sets. I forgot to mention I was only a week in to the new set when it got bent, so now I'm a week early on the new set.
