Dr. Melvin Henry Pearson

I couldn’t be made happier by the care and knowledge rendered by Dr. Pearson. He is an extremely knowledgeable, compassionate and a ferociously funny dentist and human being. He worked around my tedious schedule and made appointments I was able to make. I thank him for helping me get the smile of my dreams.

I could not be happier that I chose Dr. Pearson. My daughter needed Invisalign and the process from day one has been exceptional. I am now 10 months into the process and have not been disappointed yet. Helen the office manager is excellent. Dr. Pearson explains the entire process beforehand and you can see the progress as you move along. Look no further I could not be happier that I chose Dr. Pearson.

Dr. Pearson, not very friendly/welcoming individual. Rough, brash. and seem quite short tempted unfortunately, especially over the phone. Not a great experience overall.

I cannot recommend Dr Pearson. My children were in braces for 5 years strarting in elementary school with his suggestion. I paid 11k for them combined. In June their retainers both cracked a week apart. I contacted Dr Pearson and he was not interested in helping me obtain new retainers. Stated his office will be closed until mid July. I contacted again in July and Dr Pearson answered and asked that I call another time.. Huh. Now their teeth have shifted all of my money was wasted. He doesn't care since he's been paid in full. I went to my dentist for my invisilgn and upon completion I was give 4 sets of retainers. My dentist told me each set will last 2 years. Dr Pearson gave us 1 set ???? Edit due to response from Dr. Pearson. Is your ankle still broken? How come you didn't provide us with more then 1 set? Still haven't heard back from you about replacement which is now pointless since so much time has passed. I cannot recommend Dr Pearson.

Between covid, an accident resulting in a hospital visit, and me moving across the country unexpectedly...there was more than enough room for errors to be made. That being said..there weren’t any. I wound up finishing my treatment a lot later than I expected when I walked into the office in January but I think covid is something most people should understand will be a large wrench thrown into your plans. Having just finished treatment, I can say with confidence I’m very happy with the results. Throughout the treatment, both Dr. Pearson and his assistant Helen were both extremely open, friendly, pleasant and professional. Again, the fact they were able to work through the treatment with me moving across the country shows a commitment to results. Definitely recommend. Awesome music playing in the office as well.

Dr. Pearson has been very kind and thorough throughout the testing of my sleep apnea prognosis. He has the best referrals and the best connections. He is very technology-savvy and emails as well as follow up personal phone calls. I happened to call him on a holiday and he actually answer the phone. He never misses a call and is extremely knowledgeable. I would definitely visit him again and I recommend him to all. Thank you.

we had a wonderful experience.. my daughter had complications and every thing worked out soo well

highly recmended

I came to Dr. Pearson unhappy with the appearance of my teeth. I was getting married the following year and wanted to be happy with how my pictures came out on my wedding day. I did Invisalign for my teeth. Everything ran smoothly and I am beyond happy with how amazing my teeth turned out. I have gotten so many compliments on my smile and it was all thank to Dr. Pearson and his staff! For a quick and easy process please call Dr. Pearson!

Thank you,Dr. Pearson , for your wonderful expertise at restoring my teeth to their original straightness. I can now smile confidently. Thank you so much! Of course, the best part was the ease and painlessness during the whole process. I highly recommend Dr. Pearson!

great experience. very informative from the start. very happy with results

Dr Pearson was able to complete my treatment quick and easily, good experience over all!

I was so glad to find Dr. Pearson through a family friend, and was available in a moments notice! I could not be more happier with my smile, and the fantastic service that Dr. Pearson and his team offers.

Very nice, can be strict if you don't follow directions. Otherwise very helpful and friendly.

Pleasure coming here. My son is in and out quickly, staff is friendly.

Wonderful experience from start to finish! Excellent, friendly staff & service in office. My daughter is so happy with her new smile! Bringing my whole family back in the future for their braces.

My family had a great experience with Dr. Pearson and his wonderful staff. We would highly recommend him for all your dental needs.

Dr. Pearson is personable and friendly. I always feel at ease during my visits. Scheduled appointments are always on time and I always get a text reminder. I would recommend Dr. Pearson for invisalign treatment.

I feel very welcomed every time I come in to get my braces checked out. We never have to wait. Dr. Pearson always explains what he is about to do to with a smile on his face to make me feel comfortable. I walk in and walk out quickly. I'm very happy with his work and if you are planning to have braces this is the place! Great Orthodontist!

If I could give less than one star, I would. The office help has an unapproachable demeanor and the doctor himself isn't much interested in patient care. I already had braces on when I went there and only needed to have them on for about another 8 months. He was charging me a significant amount of money for those eight months. Also, he wanted me to see a cosmetic dentist to start a plan of care. In the meantime, my husband was laid off from work so I could not immediately go to see the cosmetic dentist yet at the same time, Dr. Pearson wouldn't see me either until I saw the cosmetic dentist. About 5 months went by before my husband was called back to work and I was able to pick up where I left off. I tried to make an appointment with the cosmetic dentist that he recommended and they called me back saying they spoke to Dr. Pearson and he wanted to see me to get everything straight (which he could have just done on the phone since all he wanted to do was tell me to see the cosmetic dentist). I show up there today, and all he really wanted was money. He complained that I hadn't paid in the months that my husband was laid off. I had already given his office $960 and the only thing they have ever done was change my rubber bands ONE TIME. It was a catch 22 for me. I couldn't see him because he wouldn't see me without me seeing the cosmetic dentist and I couldn't see the cosmetic dentist because my husband was laid off. He said he called me in today because it's "dangerous" for me to go so long without seeing him (even though he wouldn't see me) Yet, he refused to see me today because he wanted money. I told him "I've already given you $960 for one rubber band change". He still refused to see me saying I have a contract. Which didn't make sense because he wouldn't see me without me seeing the cosmetic dentist. So, I guess he just wanted me to keep on paying him even though he wouldn't see me. I told him now that my husband was back to work, I would fulfill my obligation......to no avail. He still refused to see me even though he said it was "dangerous" that I hadn't seen him in so long. Beside myself, I've put braces on both of my children and have never run into this money hungry problem before. I've never stiffed any orthodontist and had no intention of stiffing Dr. Pearson either. However, he didn't care to hear that and still refused to see me. He doesn't put his patient first and let me walk out the door without so much as just taking a look or at least changing the damn rubber bands. I cannot continue care with someone like this. I suggest you run hard and fast from this man. All I wanted was for him to just finish the care of my braces. I would have went to a cosmetic dentist when my braces were all done. I hope he's happy that his greed and lack of patient care has lost him a patient who would have gladly paid the damn balance. I should have taken a hint when I noticed that his office is always empty. Go to someone else!! If I could give less than one star, I would. The office help has an unapproachable demeanor and the doctor himself isn't much interested in patient care.

Dr Pearson is the Best Orthodontist around.

Thank you doctor the experience was very good.The treatment was successful.My sons smile is beautiful.

Comfortable, pleasant and satisfied. I have invisalign on for 6 months and see a tremendous difference already. I'm looking forward to the end result.

Both my children used Dr. Pearson, and I am very pleased with the outcomes. There is never a wait to see him and the staff, especially, Theresa is very friendly and helpful. Dr. Pearson is always upbeat and cares about his patients.

Dr. Pearson and Theresa are always super pleasant and accommodating. Dr. Pearson has so many years of experience and in my opinion is the best there is. I just completed 15 months of invisalign and am amazed with my results. I feel like a new woman with a beautiful new smile! I would definitely recommend his services. Dr. Pearson is awesome!!

My fourth child here with Dr. Pearson, nothing but success and great results. Never do you wait more then 5 minutes in the waiting room. Always accommodating.

very good

Always professional, we are on our second child coming for braces. We would absolutely recommend Dr. Pearson and will be bringing back our third for braces in a few years.

We've been coming to Dr. Pearson for many years now. When you have an appointment time that time is just for you! There is never any waiting. Dr. Pearson and his staff are very professional and nice. Always, smiling and happy to see you. Dr. Pearson goes above and beyond to make my daughter (or any child) comfortable while in his care. He is always thorough in his explanation on the care treatment. I've recommended his service to many people and they have been extremely happy.

We have had an excellent experience with Dr.Pearson.

I gave him a 1 star because there was nothing lower!!! He is a cranky old man who has no patience with his customers and also he is very racist towards other skin colors and people who don't have the same religion as him!

Terrible experience with my son. Only concerned about money and very rude. His "free" consultation will cost you $260. He said if I didn't want to work with him then, "Bye!" No wonder his office was empty when I arrived.

I didn't like the atmosphere.

Great experience, appts are honored never a wait, and willing to be flexible, Theresa is like family and Dr Pearson is great at his job.

Where do I start, from the minute I started my treatment I was greeted with nothing but niceness. Treatment went by extremely quick and was very affordable. Couldn't express my excitement any other way but to smile. Thank you Dr. Melvin Pearson, and thank you Teresa as well, an amazing staff.

The staff here is so welcoming and nice. I always looked forward to coming here. My smile has changed dramatically and I am very thankful that I came here! Best orthodontist in Staten Island. I've been getting many compliments about my smile and it is all credited to Dr. Mel Pearson!

Awesome as always. Dr. Pearson is very sincere, genuine, friendly and professional. Super happy with the results. His experience shines through. No long waits ever. The staff is great. Theresa is so nice! The doctor knows every one of his patients. We feel like family and not just a name or number.

All experiences at doctor's offices should be as pleasant as this... Dr. Pearson and Theresa are friendly, honest, and caring. They made both of my children very comfortable (and me as well!). I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

As a dental hygienist, I can appreciate the quality orthodontic care that my son and I have received from Dr. Pearson. He is always willing to listen to my questions and provide logical treatment plans for me. He has gone above and beyond in my treatment, and I am truly thankful for this.

Dr. Pearson and his staff are always friendly and welcoming. They have provided me with a very pleasant overall orthodontic experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Pearson for adult and child orthodontic needs.

Dr. Pearson has truly been wonderful with my daughter. Appointments are punctual. There's no beating around the bush. He?s very straight to the point. He's honest as far what has to get done. As long as you follow instructions you know the end result will be satisfying. While in the waiting room, I see other patients and I'm so pleased with their outcome. He's been doing this for many years. When it comes to your teeth, experience counts!

Great results, exceptional care and attention. I've never thought that I would need orthodontics at 40 when I did not when I was 10. It was easy an not embarrassed at all because nobody knew I was wearing a retainer.

Excellent!!! Dr. Pearson is just amazing. It has been just about 6 months we started the treatment but I can see the difference.

This is for both Ryan and Katelyn, We have had only one visit so far, however, we found the staff both very pleasant and helpful, as well as very organized. Dr. Pearson was friendly and took the time to make both kids comfortable and explained what he was doing.

I've been seeing Dr. Pearson for a year and half now and I'm still enjoying my visits. The staff is friendly and easy to talk. And Dr. Pearson is pretty awesome himself. Always careful with what he does, easy to talk to and makes jokes to ease the pain/nervousness. =)

After seeing the orthodontic work of most of the dentist's on Staten Island for the last 33 years as a registered dental hygienist, Dr Pearson was the easy choice for me and my family. He is simply the best! He takes the time to do it right the first time. His staff is warm and friendly putting even the most nervous patient at ease. People comment to me what a beautiful smile I have- Thank you Dr Pearson!
