Have they come up with a procedure yet for whitening veneers? Mine are 17 years old and have picked up some stains over the years.

Eileen,
There is no procedure that can re-whiten your porcelain veneers in the same way teeth whitening works on your teeth. If there is significant damage done to them, then your only options are to live with them or to replace them.
However, if you’re just talking about surface staining, then I recommend you use Supersmile toothpaste. It is fantastic at getting stains off of cosmetic work. Give that a try before spending thousands of dollars re-doing your veneers.
