Our story
Built around one idea: dentistry doesn't have to feel clinical.
Meridian opened its doors in 2014 when Dr. Alina Rahman set out to build a clinic that didn't rush patients through appointments or treat anxiety as something to just push through. Over a decade later, that same philosophy shapes everything from how long appointments run to how treatment plans are explained.
Today, Meridian is a three-dentist practice covering general, cosmetic, and wellness dentistry under one roof — with a wellness wing added in 2021 after too many patients mentioned jaw tension and stress that nobody had properly looked at before.
Meet the team
Three dentists, three areas of focus
Every patient is matched with a dentist whose focus fits what you're coming in for — or you're welcome to request someone specific.
Dr. Alina Rahman
Founder & Lead Dentist
BDS (Malaya), MSc Restorative Dentistry
Dr. Alina founded Meridian in 2014 after ten years in both public and private practice, wanting to build a clinic that felt unhurried. She leads the general dentistry program and trains the rest of the clinical team.
“The best dentistry is the kind patients barely remember being nervous about.”
Dr. Marcus Tan
Cosmetic Dentist
BDS (Adelaide), Cert. Aesthetic Dentistry
Marcus trained in aesthetic dentistry in Adelaide before returning to lead Meridian's cosmetic program. He's known for planning smile makeovers in stages, so patients can see progress before committing further.
“A great smile should still look like it's yours — just the best version of it.”
Dr. Priya Nathan
Wellness & TMJ Specialist
BDS (Malaya), Dip. Craniofacial Pain
Priya joined Meridian to build out the wellness wing after years of treating jaw pain patients who felt underserved elsewhere. She works closely with patients on both the dental and lifestyle side of jaw tension.
“So much jaw pain gets dismissed as stress. It deserves a proper look.”
