Clear aligners have become one of the most popular ways to straighten teeth without the look of fixed braces. In Landshipping, they appeal most to professionals and adults who prefer a treatment few people will notice. A digital treatment plan maps every stage, and you step through the trays in sequence over the course. They suit mild to moderate crowding, spacing and bite issues particularly well.

Pricing tracks case complexity more than brand. In Landshipping, expect aligners to sit close to brace pricing; the important comparison is what each quote includes, not the headline figure.

The Clear Aligner Process Explained
Treatment begins with a clinical assessment and usually a digital scan. Planning software maps each stage of tooth movement, and a full series of custom trays is manufactured before treatment starts.
Wear time matters above all else: 20–22 hours per day. Attachments — small tooth-coloured bumps bonded to certain teeth — help the trays grip for trickier movements like rotations.
Review appointments in Landshipping are typically every 8–11 weeks. Visits are less frequent than with fixed braces — the clinician confirms progress, issues trays, and adjusts the plan if the teeth aren't tracking as designed.
Find clear aligners in Landshipping
The biggest risk when researching aligner providers in Landshipping is treating a search result as a shortlist. Which conversations are worth having first depends on your case, not the map. Starting with a photo assessment tells you what level of provider your case actually needs.

This stage decides whether aligners are appropriate and how complex the case is.
