Our practice proudly provides Affordable Dentures® and related denture and tooth extraction services. We are located in Bluff City, TN, and opened in August 1985. Each year we treat over 4500 denture patients who travel from Bristol, Kingsport, Johnson City and many other communities in the surrounding area.
Arlene A. Kellum, DDS is a General Dentist and the Practice Owner of this Bluff City location. She graduated from the University of Tennessee, College of Dentistry. Based on many years of valuable dental experience, Dr. Kellum and her staff are proud to offer professional, compassionate care to patients that visit this practice.
Dr. Kellum’s dental center also has an on-site dental lab that fabricates new dentures and provides repairs and relines, often with same day service. Being able to provide dentures in a day is a significant advantage, especially for patients who have traveled far distances. The on-site lab also eliminates the need to use outside commercial labs, therefore helping to keep costs low.
Our lab technicians are highly skilled professionals that have crafted thousands of dentures. Their training and experience is an asset to Dr. Kellum’s practice and gives you the confidence that your denture is being fabricated locally in Tennessee.
