Dr. Jim Cox

Dental care rarely tops anyone’s list of favorite errands, yet Cedar Rapids residents keep returning to the same quiet corner of Wilson Avenue. Dr. Jim Cox operates from 4135 Wilson Ave SW, a low-slung brick building that blends seamlessly into the neighborhood’s mix of postwar homes and small medical offices. The area itself feels lived-in without being loud—sidewalks roll past tidy front yards and the occasional corner market, proof that essential services thrive best where people actually walk to them.

Routine cleanings, fillings, and simple extractions form the backbone of the practice, though they also handle crowns, bridges, and emergency visits when a cracked tooth can’t wait. Parents often bring children for sealants, while older patients schedule denture fittings; the variety suggests a steady rhythm of care rather than a rush of novelty. No bells or whistles, just the kind of dependable service that lets neighbors plan their next appointment while they’re still rinsing at the sink.

Reach the office at (319) 396-0700 to book a slot or ask about insurance. For directions, pull up the map here—the route is straightforward, but the last turn off Edgewood Road can sneak up on you if you’re not watching the numbers.
