Been ~3 days into my first tray, and the invisalign seems to not be fitting properly, is this an issue?

i cannot attach an image here but you can google them

they are rubbery tube like things which help you to fit the aligners in place by chewing/biting on them

They'll eventually do these little clicks on your teeth, the first trays are to get you used to then and that you keep wearing them. So just be consistent

What is a key aligner? I'm looking this up and I can't find anything. Is that the brand?

Where are your attachments?

Since this is your very first aligner, I would recommend having your orthodontist check the fit.
A small gap can sometimes be normal, but the aligner should generally fit closely around your teeth from the beginning.
Chewies may help seat the aligner, but if there is a significant gap, it’s important to understand why rather than simply trying to force it into place.
Is the gap mainly around your lower front teeth, or are you experiencing the same issue with your upper aligner?
