Dr. John Wehr
Dr. Wehr's dedication to dentistry can be traced back to his roots. He is a second generation dentist, third generation doctor, and fourth generation Ann Arborite.
A commitment to the local community is one of Dr. Wehr's core values.
Dr. Wehr graduated from the University of Michigan with a degree in Theater and Speech before joining the National Guard where he served in a combat support hospital. He returned to the University of Michigan to earn his D.D.S. In 1998, he moved into his current office, a former UAW hall that has been transformed into a
state-of-the-art dental office.
Dr. Wehr is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, American Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, and Michigan Dental Association. He supports many local charities, including St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, Ann Arbor Hospice, Food Gatherers, and Hope Clinic. One of the most rewarding aspects of dentistry for Dr. Wehr is donating his dental services to organizations like Give Back A Smile which provides dental care to victims of domestic violence.
