No: Veneers and crowns are made from porcelain or ceramic. You cannot change their color. This is why matching their proper shade is so important when the veneers or crowns are made. If you have decided to have whiter teeth, then you need to replace all the ceramic in your mouth.

Definitely, no: You cannot whiten the veneers or crown as the porcelain will not change color. If you want them whiter or different shade, you would need to have them replaced. Take care.
