Invisalign: Tray 8

I guess I didn't think anything (like to call the office maybe!) of the disconnect between the incisor speedbump and my reservoir. The assistant gave me tray 8 and as I inserted them, I had the same issues -so I revealed them to her.

Dr Eric had to don the latex gloves to poke around and check both sets and their mis-alignments. He asked me to wear this set for 2 weeks and let him know if there were additional issues. I continued to wear them with the pit sitting just cockeyed off the speedbump.

Oh well!

Invisalign: Tray 7

Tray #7 was the set that I was given to take home so that I wouldn't have make a trip into the office. Boy! I thought I had done something wrong after all these weeks of inserting/removing the trays at mealtime... the speed bump on the upper incisor refused to fit into the reservoir! Hmm...

I continued to push and push and fit but to my knowledge it wasn't snug-as-a-bug in the pit. So, I waited until the next office visit.
