My crown doesn’t match the shade of my other teeth, what can be done?

Q.
last year i used the home teeth whitening kit given by my dentist, now that my teeth are white. the lab people are struggling to make a new crown that matches my other teeth.they cant get the colour right.i have been going for 8 months now.is there anything else i can do?sometimes its too white and sometimes dark.
A.
If this is a Nhs crown you will never get a match.
If the shade is that difficult there are specific laboratories that specialise in cosmetics.
However it is difficult to get a crown shade to look the same in differing lights so go for best match in the light you spend the most time in.
