what an ordeal day...

Above is the link for 2years ago blog.

Today, brushed my teeth n rinse it with mouthwash to make sure my mouth is in optimal hygiene condition for the surgery later.

Tot i gg to spore dentist, i will have a comfortable session but i was wrong. Compared to 2 years ago, the msian dentist may seemed not gentle, but my surgery was not painful at all. Today, dunno is the dentist scared of overdozing me with anesethic or what, he had to do 6 small injection b4 i could experience min pain.

dunno is I 'shuay1' or what, my wisdom tooth had to be broken in so many pieces and remove 1 by 1. Each piece is like torment to me. First, it is not totally numb, so every now n den i will feel pain if the dentist starts drilling. Ironically he kept emphasizing " Most importantly it's to make u feel comfortable whole time during the surgery, u shouldn't feel pain at all, shall u feel pain pls tell me" feel like rolling my eyes man!! then why don't u just knock me out or give me full anesethic so i can go thru the whole session in peace??! cuz in de end every now n then i have to stop him cuz i feel pain. =(

dunno is i allergic to the anesethic or what though i dun have any history of medicine allergy, but right after the jab, my whole body starts to shiver uncontrollably, not that kind of spirit possession but those un-noticeable only i know that kind of shiver. The only thing to make my body calm down is to hold my 2 hands tighly together. i was still wondering issit air con too cold cuz i wearing shorts or i just too scared. i can even hear my heart beat pumping like mad for goodness sake!

i got even more nervous when i experienced pain during the surgery. it shouldn't be the case ma. tot anesethic is to make it a painless process?? i got soooo scared that i almost wanted to cry. Tot i gg to die cuz the very important blood vein is near our wisdom tooth. Started to pray and imagine that God is holding my hand n lead me thru. it is indeed not a pleasant experience.

The dentist said although the session is 1 1/2hr..oni 20min for surgery, most of the time is to wait for my mouth to be numb..but duhs..if i am not wrong he took total 2 hrs!! 1 hr to battle with my wisdom tooth!!! not to put him down cuz i know he is trying to b nice n sounds like everything is ok so i won't get panicky. but when i feel the pain how not to be panicky??!

And the surgery comes with a exp price tag of $598.50!! luckily there is this thing called medisave and end up i need to pay $9.50 for the medicine only...

Good point about this time surgery:
2 nurses and 1 dentist all very gentle n caring
Need not pay any money!!!
Can take solid food! (msia dentist told me i can oni drink milo for 1 day )

Bad point about this time surgery:
Anesthetic not enough thus surgery i experienced pain! the doc did explain i have infection at my wisdom tooth also dat is why i will feel sensation during the surgery. haiz. i wonder if i nvr have this surgery...maybe my whole mouth will be filled with infected n rotten teeth.


7 broken pieces of my wisdom tooth.


medicine for this time round. not as exaggerating as the msian one..think the msian one scare i died of infection...gave me 7 type of medicine lor.
Went home slept for 4 hours straight not to say of cuz on MC la woohoo~~!
Then at night go meet with sin sin they all to cele her bdae~~ I think i reali greedy..just have surgery n the next thing was areadi chewing food.. we have nice japanese buffet at curry favor at novena square. $22.80 ++ per person. nice n drinks are free flow~~
i can't grin widely with the cotton gauze in my mouth it was a challenge.
suli's sparstic expression.
i looked sparstic too=(


At least the yummy dinner cheered me up a bit. i can imagine i turned into a fungi ball n cringed in a corner...crying in pain if i choose to stay at home.
Still can taste the blood in my mouth..n the swollen gums.
