There is a gap between one of my teeth and the top of the aligner. Is something wrong?

Q. I began with my third aligner tray a week ago and I have noticed a little gap between one of my tooth and the top of the alighner. Will the aligner go on to fit better or is it a bad one? What should I do? I am still wearing it.,

A. There could be a couple of reasons why the gap. It is possible space is needed around the said tooth or the no 2 aligner has not fully completed its movement. Also always use chewies after fitting your aligners
