ꨄ︎ THE DENTIST BEHIND THE DREAM
St. Johns Dental Care Owner: Dr. Aubree Capen
In August 2025, Dr. Aubree Capen proudly purchased the practice from Dr. Mark Connelly, beginning an exciting new chapter for St. Johns Dental Care. After more than four decades of caring for the St. Johns community, Dr. Connelly is now fully retired.
Today, Dr. Capen and our team are honored to continue caring for the many patients who have trusted this practice for years, while also welcoming so many new faces to our dental family. We’re incredibly grateful for the continued support of our community and look forward to carrying on the tradition of compassionate, personalized care for years to come!
