It : It depends somewhat on the material that the crown is made of, but if it's not surface stain that can be polished off the usual remedy is to remake the crowns with an improved color. If the surface has been stained by food, coffee or smoking it is possible that polishing the stain off may improve the color.

Have : Have you teeth professionally polished to see if the darkening is due to surface staining. Otherwise, there is nothing you can do since porcelain doesnt change color. If the crowns were made of resin, then the staining is deeply embedded in the material and cannot be removed.
