Whiten Your Teeth. Brighten Your Life.
Professional Teeth Whitening in Edinburgh
Whether you’re prepping for a special event, wanting to reverse years of staining, or simply ready to feel more confident every time you smile, our dentist-led teeth whitening options are safe, effective, and built around you.
At Integrated Dentalcare, we don’t do gimmicks. We deliver whitening that works.
You’re Not Alone If Your Smile Isn’t As Bright As It Used To Be
Coffee, tea, red wine, berries, tobacco, and even time itself can gradually yellow and dull your teeth.
It’s frustrating when:
- Over-the-counter kits barely do anything
- Whitening toothpastes promise more than they deliver
- You feel self-conscious in photos, meetings, or just looking in the mirror
We believe your smile should be a source of confidence—not compromise.


Why Choose Professional Whitening?
- Noticeable results within days
- Custom-fitted trays for even, comfortable whitening
- Professional-grade gel—60 times stronger than non-professional products
- Support from a dental team that knows your goals
- Ongoing maintenance options for long-lasting results
And for internal tooth discolouration—like after a root canal—we offer internal whitening, targeting the issue from the inside out.
What Whitening Options Are Available at Integrated Dentalcare?
Boutique Whitening (At-Home Professional System)
Our most popular choice. This dentist-guided system lets you whiten on your terms, with maximum safety and minimal sensitivity.
How it works:
- Custom trays made from precise impressions of your teeth
- Supplied with professional-strength whitening gel
- Worn for a set time each day or overnight
- Results build gradually, with visible change typically in 7–14 days
- Trays are yours to keep for future touch-ups


Internal Whitening for Darkened Teeth
For teeth that have darkened following root canal treatment.
How it works:
- A small opening is made in the back of the affected tooth
- Whitening gel is placed inside and the tooth is sealed temporarily
- This may be repeated until the tooth reaches the desired brightness
- Once complete, the opening is permanently sealed
Step-by-Step: What to Expect

1. Initial Consultation
We assess your smile, identify causes of discolouration, and recommend the right whitening option for your goals.

2. Custom Trays (for Boutique Whitening)
We take a 3D intra-oral scan and create trays that fit snugly, distributing gel evenly for a smooth and predictable result.

3. Your Whitening Treatment Begins
You receive your whitening kit, complete with gel and instructions. We’ll walk you through everything.

We monitor your progress, answer any questions, and provide advice on post-whitening care to help extend the results.
Real Benefits That Go Beyond Shade Charts
- Boost your confidence for work, dating, weddings or holidays
- Feel more yourself when you smile and speak
- No camera filters, no retouching. Just your real smile, brighter.


How to Maintain Your Brighter Smile
After whitening, you’ll want to preserve your results:
- Avoid dark drinks like coffee, tea, and red wine for 24–48 hours
- Stick to water, milk, white meats, and light foods right after treatment
- Use a straw for dark drinks when possible
- Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
- Visit us for regular hygiene appointments
- Use your trays for touch-ups as needed
Results can last 6 months to 2+ years, depending on lifestyle and care.

What Patients Say
Integrated Dentalcare have straightened my teeth and fixed all wear. I have been with the practice for 10 years and they have always been exemplary in their approach and treatments. The clinic is very calm. The reception is very friendly. I highly recommend them.
Themis A.
Just finished 30 weeks of invisible aligners with Integrated Dentalcare and I can’t praise them enough for the care and attention they afforded me at all times. I was part of the process throughout the treatment which included regular check-ups and discussions to check progress. Their expertise has given me a wonderful new smile which I’m delighted with. Best dentist I’ve ever been too.

I went years without going to a dentist after bad previous experiences that had made me anxious to go back, but I found Integrated Dentalcare. I’ve genuinely never felt worried about going to the dentist since. They are honestly the nicest dentists you could ask for. They listened to my concerns and instead of brushing me off, they straightened my teeth and made me feel much more confident when I smile. They went above and beyond to fit appointments around my schedule and make me feel completely as ease every time.

Another visit to the dental practice this morning, nearing the end of my Sparks treatment and so pleased with the results. The alignment of my teeth is amazing, thank you to Alan for his infinite attention to detail and expertise as an orthodontist. All staff are so welcoming and professional throughout each contact I have had. Treatment, skills, knowledge and equipment are highly advanced in this clinic.

When I started my journey with Integrated Dentalcare my confidence with my teeth was at an all time low. I’d had several failed treatments in the past and had a number of recurring problems – some of which were very painful. I hated the shape, colour and condition of my teeth. I chose Integrated Dentalcare based on family recommendations – and I am so so glad I did. All the staff are extremely competent, knowledgable and friendly. The receptionists, dentists and hygienists alike. I had all of my fillings replaced with lovely new white ones. I had all of my root canal treatment repaired as poor dentistry in the past (at another practice) meant that I had recurring pain. I had orthodontic treatment and I had whitening treatment too. The most important things to me was the whitening treatment which worked better than anyone expected due to the amazing products they gave me. I also am so happy with the skill and care taken place with my bridge work – making the new teeth the correct shape for my mouth and unable to tell they aren’t my real teeth! I can now smile and feel totally not self conscious. It’s made a massive difference to my entire life. They have given me the skills to continue practicing good dental hygiene meaning that I won’t have as many problems in the future. Expertise is incomparable, staff are so accommodating and they will do their upmost to allow you to achieve your dental goals! After an initial consultation with Neeraj it was clear that my negligence combined with poor prior dentistry had led me to this point. Neeraj filled me with confidence after my first appointment and for the first time in years I felt as if someone understood my problems and could actually fix them. X rays showed that my root canals had been unsuccessful and some of my fillings too. I had a very out of place incisor crown that was not consistent with the rest of my teeth causing me to cover my mouth with my hand when talking to people and laughing. I felt as if my teeth were embarrassing and I never wanted anyone to see them. I met with Nikki for an educational appointment on brushing and flossing. Within a couple of weeks I noticed a difference in the shade of my teeth and family and friends had noticed too. I then met with Adrian for three very lengthy appointments where he fixed all of my root canals and fillings. Today, Adrian replaced the crown that looked so different to my other teeth with one that could be my own tooth. I felt very emotional when I looked in the mirror and saw my smile. I still have a brace and implants on the agenda for 2016. The team are so dedicated and genuinely passionate about dentistry.

FAQs – Everything You’re Wondering
How white will my teeth get?
That depends on the original shade and cause of discolouration. Most patients see a difference of several shades after a full course.
Will it hurt or cause sensitivity?
Some people may experience temporary sensitivity. We offer gels and advice to manage this. It’s usually mild and short-lived.
How long do results last?
6 months to a few years—depending on diet, hygiene, and smoking habits. Touch-ups are easy with your custom trays.
Does it work on crowns or fillings?
No—whitening only affects natural enamel. We’ll discuss options for creating a consistent smile if you have restorations.
Can I just do whitening before a special occasion?
Absolutely. We recommend starting at least 2–3 weeks in advance for the full result.
