One of my front tooth chipped again about 2 days ago. It had a minor chip before invisalign, but I guess the pressure caused it to chip again. Is it possible to have the tooth temporarily fixed while having invisalign? The tooth that chipped also happens to have an attachment to it too.

It is New, but you need to talk to your ortho about how to get this done.
Good luck!
After 5 years, 11 months and two days of stainless steel brackets ... my teeth now have upper and lower bonded, gold wire, retainers and removable clear retainers!

Depending on the movement required by that tooth, it may or may not be ok to continue with the current set of aligners. If the chipped part is the surface where the aligner was going to push against to move the tooth, you're best served repairing the tooth and taking an impression for mid-course correction.
Good luck!
