Being in an old Victorian, you get the feel of the family practice that this is. But Dr. Pearce couldn't be more state of the art. I won't bore you with details, but I had work done I wouldn't wish on anybody. I came thru the experience amazingly well! Not only is Dr. Pearce a gifted surgeon, I look soooo good!!!!! And the rest of the team. I now consider these women genuine friends of mine. They've literally held my hand. I'm sure you can find another competent dentist, but I went to "the best". 😆

Dr. Pearce and his outstanding staff are kind, patient, and professional. They thoroughly explain every procedure, and answer each question in depth. On top of all this, they are always friendly, upbeat and fun. As a lifelong dental coward, I’m thrilled to have found such a wonderful practice. All my dental fears are gone!

Dr. Pearce and his staff are wonderful.I chose their office to get my bone and gum grafts and 3 implants.Not only do I have dental phobias, but the procedure was lengthy and expensive. I cannot articulate just how happy I am that I made the decision to have this done and to go to Dr. Pearce!For the first time in many many years, I am not in pain.I left the office yesterday for the final phase of my procedure and smiled so much all night, that my cheeks hurt!

Awesome served by Donna once again. She actually knows who I am and will actually follow up on things I forgot we talked about previously. The whole staff is great. I used to fear going to the dentist and since switching to Dr. Pierce and Baldwinsville Gentle Dentistry that fear is gone.

I have had a life long history of cavities even though I am meticulous about brushing, flossing and dental care. I decided to visit B-ville Gentle Dentistry because my last dentist told me I had four cavities and that would require four visits of 1.5 hours each. I researched online and saw that Dr. Pierce was able to fill all the cavities in one long visit, so I decided to give that practice a try. I was literally "wowed" at my first visit with hygienist Pam and Dr. Murphy, Dr. Pierce's daughter. No pain at all during the cleaning, and both Pam and Dr. Murphy told me the reason I get so many cavities is because I have acidic saliva which promotes decay. I was thrilled that they diagnosed a reason, and that they offered a solution to prevent future cavities with fluoride toothpaste, rinses, gums, sprays, etc. At that visit they scheduled me to see Dr. Pierce for a multi hour visit to fill my four cavities and put crowns on them for extra protection. The night before this visit I feared that the Novocaine would not work (it often did not with my old dentist) or that any of multiple problems could arise. Pam said Dr. Pierce had nitrous gas and even general anesthesia, but she comforted me by stating I really did not need these because Dr Pierce would numb me sufficiently, and he did! He mentioned that he uses a stronger anesthetic called Marcaine and some other goodies in it that he has specially formulated by a compounding pharmacy. When the anesthesia kicked in shortly after the injections (which were relatively painless) I felt a very deep numbing and my confidence skyrocketed. Dr. Pierce and Julia, his dental assistant, worked diligently for a few hours to fix my cavities and put on the temporary crown. Every couple of minutes they would ask if I had pain, and I did on one tooth he was working on. He immediately gave another painless injection and no more pain. I was so at ease and pain free that I literally fell asleep three times while Dr. Pierce was working in my mouth; incredible! The next day the doctor called to check on me and I shared with him how happy I was about now having a cavity free mouth, and thanks to him and his exemplary staff, it was pain free and one visit! Amazing dentists in Dr. Pierce and his daughter Dr. Murphy. Amazing staff in Pam, Julia and reception, amazing experience at a dental office, of all places!

Dr. Pearce and his staff are exceptional. From the care they give you in terms of your comfort and ease at being "at the dentist", to the excellent work you receive at the hands of the professionals there, I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are committed to your happiness with their work and your comfort while there. I love my new crown and implant. They feel and look like real, beautiful teeth!! Thank you, Dr. Pearce and Co.!!!

A week and a half ago I walked into Baldwinsville Gentle Dentistry with two broken teeth due to a bad fall. It was a Friday morning and couldn’t reach anyone at my regular dentist. I was scared that I would have to go the entire weekend with a broken smile. Not only did Dr. Pearce and his team get me in immediately, but they made sure I felt comfortable and cared for throughout the process of fixing my teeth. I left that afternoon extremely pleased, confident and in no pain. I cannot express how gracious and impressed I am with Baldwinsville Gentle Dentistry. They made a very stressful situation much better with their genuine compassion and care. Julia and Dr. Pearce never made me feel like an imposition for not having an appointment or being a patient, and even made me laugh through my tears upon arrival. I will be a patient for life! I’m grateful for how they’ve helped me and highly recommend Dr. Pearce and team. Best dental practice in Central New York!!

I've been a patient of Dr. Pearce and his staff since moving to Baldwinsville in 2010. I've had everything from routine cleanings to two crowns and have been very happy with the care they've provided. The staff is always cheerful, the office lovely, but best of all, Dr. Pearce has a great way about him that puts a nervous dental patient at ease. I'd recommend "Gentle Dentistry" to anyone who was looking for the most up-to- date care and procedures in dental work!

Just had a tooth pulled and I had a great experience!!! Dr. Murphy was so gentle and made sure I wasn't in any pain. She's just like her father Dr Pearce, which too is always sure you're free of pain. Love the staff, always friendly.

I have been going to Dr. Pearce for a number of years and have always found the staff and Dr. Pearce to be caring and concerned about how I was doing. They take the time to explain what is happening so that you are not anxious. Dr. Pearce lives up to the name of his practice: gentile dentistry. I would definitely recommend them especially if someone is anxious about seeing a dentist.

Staff is excellent. I have been nervous about going to the dentist for years, afraid of the possibility of pain. I immediately felt comfortable here and haven’t missed an appointment since I started almost 2 years ago. Pam is my hygienist and she is fabulous. The Dr and the rest of the staff are kind and understanding as well. They never make me feel like a whimp or unreasonable for being nervous/ scared about getting work done. Excellent team. I highly recommend them, especially if you have any dental problems.

18:20 22 Feb 19

Can actually say I look forward to my dentist appointments. My smile is improved at every visit. GREAT JOB!!

I chose to go to Baldwinsville Gentle Dentistry based on the amazing reviews I read online and from the get go I really enjoyed the experience. From step one everyone seemed like I had their individual attention and you're not just another patient. I will give another review after I have been with them longer. So far so good! 10 out of 10

Dr Pearce is very professional and caring. He gives me options so I could make the best decision. I’ve been a patient for more than 15 years. I get compliments almost daily from strangers on how great my teeth look. The staff there are wonderful too. Donna takes care of my 6 month cleanings and she does a wonderful job. The atmosphere there is warm and friendly and they always have your best interest in mind.
