The invention relates to a method for producing dentures. According to the invention, provision is made for the dentures to have a base element, which holds at least two tooth blanks, comprising the following steps: producing a negative mould by machining on the basis of a digital image of a tooth situation; shortening by machining a length dimension of the tooth blanks which are preassembled and held in the negative mould from a basal side in order to achieve a tooth line adapted to the tooth situation; connecting the base element and the shortened tooth blanks to form the dentures.
