I have to wait 30-40 days for my ClearPath aligners to arrive, will my teeth change position by then?

Q.
Hi, I had finished my metal brace treatment some 6 years back. But over the time the teeth have relapsed now.
So I had now ordered ClearPath aligners thinking that they could help with my problem. So the bite impressions and moulds are taken and sent to the aligner manufacturer.
Here is my worry… It will take 30-40 days to receive the aligners. Is there a chance that my teeth are still relapsing, and it will move in 30-40 days? So is there a chance the aligner wont fit in my teeth, since the measurements have been changed since…?
Or is it like, the teeth can not move that much in 30-40 days, and also since I had finished my braces some 7 years back…? Thank you for any advice you can provide for me.
A.
Good question. Your teeth are very unlikely to be moving at such a rate now that the time period would affect the fit of your aligners so I wouldn’t be too concerned. Hope this helps.
