No the teeth whitening products do not work on dental crowns.

Not only will the teeth whitening not work on dental crowns the teeth whitening products will also not work on other porcelain or most bonding materials.

That includes other dental products such as dentures, dental implants and Veneers.

So you want to do your best to keep your dental crowns, dentures or dental implants from staining by brushing them regularly.

Once the crowns or veneers or dental implants are in it can be hard to whiten them.

You may be able to whiten your dentures though but regular teeth whitening products will not whiten them or your crowns.

A dentist may be able to whiten your crowns depending on how badly stained your dental crowns are but there's no guarantee that they will be able to whiten the crowns.
