ok my tooth had been hurting badly for more than 1 week already.. 2 of the paracetemol meant for dental pain that i bought from watson pharmacy could only stop the pain temporarily.. actually i wanted to just bear with the pain and not seek treatment or whatsoever.. because i am afraid of the dentist! i am sure all of u are isnt it? i mean it has been ages since i last visit one.. i am so afraid that the dentist will say things like all my tooth had already decay or all my tooth needs to be extracted etc.. partly also because i wanted to save the money la..

but i heard a story few days ago which changed my decision.. celine told me abt this 12 yr old girl who had a toothache and she took it lightly.. when she finally seek treatment, she died 5 days later due to some tooth cancer..

so i went to the dental clinic last night after work.. dreaded that appointment but i din really have a choice.. i told the dentist i got a terrible toothache.. all he took was 5 mins and he arrived at a conclusion.. he said i needed an operation to extract ALL my wisdom teeth!

i went speechless after hearing it.. i was staring at him blankly as i din know how to react.. i mean 1 tooth is enough to freak me out.. but no he is gg to pluck out all 4! haaa.. next line shocked me too.. he say one tooth is going to cost $600! i cant believe what i heard lor.. cos i seriously dont understand y i need to pay so much money to extract those "useless teeth" as quoted from the dentist.. good thing is the surgery can be paid through cpf..

anyway the process is frightening.. i saw lots of equipments.. dont know the correct term though.. the needle used to numb my nerves is gigantic! b4 i can even say no, the dentist was alr putting it into my mouth.. he was poking all over my left side of the mouth.. i think altogether i was poked abt 10 times or more.. ouuuchh =\

he started to tell me abt the risk of this surgery.. he also made me sign this consent form.. then when i started to feel the numbness, he started the operation.. at first i was staring at him with both eyes wide open.. but soon enough, i realised its not a very wise choice because seeing the equipments that he was holding will make me scream.. so i closed my eyes shut thruout.. i think i will feel less terrified if i dont see.. haaa its a gd thing the dentist can joke and lighten my mood slightly..

during the op, i could feel the pressure when he plucked my teeth.. lucky i cant really feel the pain man.. but i heard him asking for sissors, needle and thread as he needed to stitch the wound etc.. hearing it gives me the shivers lor.. cant believe wat will happen if i really look at what he's doing! haa the whole op lasted for an hour.. when i finally opened my eyes, i saw blood on the dentist's gloves lor! when all's done, he made me bite a cotton wool to stop the bleeding.. i almost couldnt feel anything on my left mouth.. i can even hardly control my mouth to close lor..

i got 4 packets of medicine and 1 week of mc! the nurse gave me 2 packets of cotton wool and instructed me to change within a hr span.. initially i din realised how bad i was actually bleeding until i tasted smth funny when i swallow my saliva.. i took out the pc of cotton wool and was disgusted at what i saw.. a bloody red and wet cotton wool! zzz

anyway i used up all the cotton wool and the blood still doesnt seem to stop la.. for a moment i thought i might just die of excess loss of blood.. lol.. i regretted not planning properly earlier.. should have done the op on wednesday night and take the rest of the week off.. now i have to go back to work on fri.. zzzz.. have to take over recept duty on friday cos cindy taking morning leave.. arrgghh hated that job! though i gt 1 week mc, but i cant really take them all la.. else when i return to work, i think i will die.. work will be piling lyk hell isnt it?

as i am writing this, i am already feeling so lazy that i wished i dun need to go back to work anymore.. awwww i guess thats just human nature.. 2 weeks later i still have to make a visit to the dental clinic to remove the stitch.. if nth goes wrong, i will also have both my wisdom tooth on the right extracted.. till then..


Let love be the one to knock at ur door ♥♥♥
♥♥♥ True love is worth waiting for
