Brief Answer:
Consult a Prosthodontist.

Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Thanks for the query..

You should consult a Prosthodontist and get evaluated as they are specialist dentist in crowns and other prosthetic dental appliances..

A well fabricated ceramic crown can give a proper colour gradient..

CAD CAM based crowns are also precise..

Also when you wear the crown for a few days it will gradually become more complaint with the colour of the natural teeth as it gradually starts wearing off and get exposed to chewing forces like natural teeth and starts looking more natural..

Please write back for more queries..

Regards..
