Are the Martells in danger of extinction?

Oberyn and Quentyn are dead. Doran probably won't have any more children. We don't know of any other distant martells. Which leaves Arianne and Trystane.

Both of them have left the safety of Sunspear, and have gone off to fangerous places. Trystane is going to King's Landing, where there would be numerous factions that would want him dead (Cersei has already demonstrated this, and the Tyrells would want him dead so that they could marry Myrcella to Willas). Arianne is going off tot he midst of fighting, where there would be many ways for her to meet her end.

I'm not saying that the Martells are going to go extinct. But I think that there is a definite chance that the Martells could be gone by the end of the series.

I just realized that some of the sand snakes could theoretically be legitimized.

Of course they have other relatives. Manfrey Martell, the castellan at Sunspear, is a cousin of Doran. And it was never said he was the only one, or that he had no descendants. 

I forgot about him.
