Meet Dr. Todd Martin - Dentist Murfreesboro, TN.

Dr. Martin was born and raised right down the road in Cookeville, TN where he attended Cookeville High School. Along with being a member of the National Honor Roll Society each year, Dr. Martin also excelled on the baseball diamond. After being selected to the All-State team in baseball, he earned a scholarship to continue his baseball career at Middle Tennessee State University.

While at MTSU, Dr. Martin continued his academic success being elected to the Academic Honor Roll. In baseball, he also garnered many accolades. In addition to being selected to the All-Conference and All-Region teams, as a junior Dr. Martin was chosen as an All-American. To this day he still holds the MTSU all-time career batting average record with a career average of .392.

Dr. Martin was able to achieve his childhood dream of playing professional baseball when he signed with the Cleveland Indians organization. After several seasons with the Cleveland Indians organization, he sustained a career ending injury that made it impossible to continue on his professional baseball career path. Dr. Martin then returned to MTSU where he graduated and went on to attend the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry. After finishing Dental School, he returned to Murfreesboro, Tennessee to practice dentistry where he joined Bluegrass Dental as an associate. His personable chair side manner and his relentless dedication to excellent treatment earned him the opportunity to officially take over the reins of Bluegrass Dental a year later. Life seemed to come full circle when Dr. Martin was asked to be the preferred dental provider for MTSU athletics.

Dr. Martin has continued his training and education by attending ongoing dental courses offered by all of his affiliation organizations. He is focused on offering the most up-to-date dental procedures available. Dr. Martin is an Implant Pathway Fellow with extensive clinical training in dental implants.

Growing up, Dr. Martin had an up close and personal view into the life of a dentist as his father was a dentist in their hometown of Cookeville for 40 years. A career in dentistry was not in the forefront of Dr. Martin’s mind initially as he was focused on chasing down his dream of being a major league baseball player. Dr. Martin’s relentless dedication to the craft of baseball earned him the opportunity to play professionally before he sustained a career-ending injury. When Dr. Martin was forced to come up with a new dream, he only needed to look to his dad for inspiration. Once he decided on chasing down the dream of becoming a dentist, Dr. Martin used the same relentless determination to tackle numerous prerequisites courses, getting into accepted into dental school and graduating four years later. After graduation, Dr. Martin set his sights on the Middle Tennessee area where most of his family now resides. He started as an associate at Bluegrass Dental, but now is the sole owner and dentist of the practice. Dr. Martin brings the same drive and dedication that he used to excel at baseball to his patients at Bluegrass Dental. He loves having the opportunity to serve Murfreesboro and the surrounding communities.

When not at the office, Dr. Martin loves to spend time with his wife, Caitlin, and their three dogs, Rookie, Astro & Noah. They love trying new restaurants, going to concerts, or catching a sports game. Dr. Martin is an avid Kentucky basketball fan, Tennessee Titans football fan and Nashville Predators hockey fan. Of course, he can’t forget about his Alma Mater, MTSU. He is the preferred Dental Provider of MTSU Athletics and sponsors several of their events.
