I don't know what you're running, but there are numerous ways to change your DNS. Check with your provider.
Sorry..wanted to clarify ...

DNS translates names to IPs, but DNS stands for Domain Name System, not Dynamic Name Server...

In fact, the few DNS servers we have in the world (13 I believe) are static or fixed, not dynamic. Those are root DNS for child DNS servers like Google or AT&T, which forward their request to the main ones, to find child domains.
