This is the second time Dr Lopresti has come to my rescue. The first time was in 2005 and I was suffering from an undiagnosed case of TMJ. I had been to two other dentists, neither of whom suggested it was TMJ. I called the office and explained the pain I was in and was seen the next day. As soon as I explained my symptons to Dr Lopresti he immediately diagnosed me with TMJ and had an oral appliance made. I was in such horrible pain and was so relieved to finally have relief.
More recently, I had had a cavity which eventually grew into a full blown infection. As I was without insurance at the time, I had my GP give me a prescription for Cipro. The infection was kept in check and I forgot about it (looking back I should have had it looked at). A couple of months passed and the pain returned worse than ever. To complicate matters, I am scheduled for a hip replacement the beginning of December. My orthopedic surgeon wanted my infection taken care of prior to surgery. Dr. Lopresti was able to see me the next day to begin the root canal and extract a tooth I will be replacing.
I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Lopresti. He has a great staff and he truly cares about his patients. Thank you Dr. Lopresti and Rosenne.
