Dr. James C. Nord

South of downtown Grand Forks, the stretch of 17th Avenue feels like a quiet crossroads where neighborhoods meet. Here, among the low-slung storefronts and tree-lined sidewalks, Dr. James C. Nord offers dental care that fits into the rhythm of daily life. Routine exams, fillings, and more involved procedures happen in the same building where families from across the city have come for years.

On the corner of 27th Street, the practice sits at 2720 17th Ave S, just a few blocks from the Red River. Patients arrive from nearby subdivisions and the older streets around the University, where parking is rarely an issue and the pace slows to match the neighborhood itself. Cleanings, crowns, and emergency visits are all handled under one roof, making it a straightforward stop for anyone who needs consistent care.

Dentistry in a college town often means a mix of students, faculty, and long-time residents, each with different schedules and needs. Preventive check-ups, root canals, and cosmetic adjustments are scheduled around classes, work shifts, and hockey practice. The office keeps things simple: no frills, just the basics done well.

To book an appointment or confirm hours, call (701) 772-6922 before heading over. For directions, the map at this link will guide you past the familiar landmarks of 17th Avenue. Once there, the routine of a dental visit feels a little less like an interruption and more like part of the day.
