Can porcelains crowns be lightened in color by lab?

Lapetitemel
Lab tech told me at color match that once he makes the crowns and they are done, he can make darker but not lighten. Well I got the crowns and they are too dark. Dentist said he spoke to lab tech and he can lighten them. I'm confused why he told me he could not when I first met him. Should I trust?
