Can crowns darken? A few years ago I had my teeth bleached and I had crowns placed on my four front teeth to match.

A few years ago I had my teeth bleached and I had crowns placed on my four front teeth to match. (Removed existing crowns) now it seems like my crowns and teeth have yellowed a bit. I know that crowns can not be lightened. However, I thought they couldn't be stained. If they can be stained, can they return to original color?
