Is it possible to bleach crowns?
13 doctors weighed in across 5 answers
No: Only enamel will bleach. Porcelain will not change color which is one of the reasons it is used.

No: No, crowns do not change color or respond to teeth whitening products. If you want to whiten your teeth you will have to get the crown replaced to match.

No: They are porcelain, metal, or ceramic-like materials which are not able to be whitened. Only acrylic is different, and it stains, not whitens. Good Luck.
