At mydentist, we know that finding an NHS dentist in Scotland—particularly one accepting new patients—can still be challenging.

When you sit down with Dr Alexanne Martin, it’s immediately clear that dentistry, for her, is about more than teeth. It’s about people, progress and finding fulfilment in work that challenges you every day — while still allowing space for balance, growth and enjoyment.

Gum disease is one of the world’s most common health conditions, yet it’s often overlooked until it becomes serious. Known as a ‘silent disease’, gum disease, also called gingivitis, or periodontitis in its advanced stages, can progress painlessly, causing irreversible damage to your teeth, gums and even your overall health. However, it is preventable and can be easily treated when it is found early enough.   That’s why awareness of gum disease matters every day, not just when you’re showing signs or symptoms of the condition.
