My bottom Invisalign tray just cracked while I was taking them off for dinner. I am on day 11 of 14. Also, two days ago the bottom tray didn't seem to sit correctly on my back right teeth. I must admit I believe I was pulling the bottom tray out. Is is okay to finish wearing the cracked tray? Or will I need to have a replacement made?

Invisalign is not very effective in pulling down teeth as with traditional braces. Cases with an open bite are better treated with traditional braces as opposed to Invisalign.
Your treatment plan was a contract between you and your dentist to exchange an agreed amount of money for completed treatment. Your dentist has already paid Invisalign for the entire treatment and done the majority of the work even though you are only half way through treatment.
Do the right...
Whenever teeth are being moved using any type of orthodontics, during the actual tooth movement, your bite may feel different than it did before you started treatment. The teeth do not all move at the same time or at the same rate.
Eventually they catch up so that the bite should feel...
