Anyway, woke up early in the morning to go for a dental checkup at ToaPayohPolyclinic and that's when my nightmare began. I'm not saying that the dentist is horrible or what, in fact, she's really nice. Sweet. What came as a nightmare to me is that she told me that both of my bottom wisdom teeth are impacted and told me to go to a hospital for extraction. Ahhh! She refered me to TanTockSeng hospital but when my mom called them up to set an appointment for my oral surgery, they told us that the earliest that I can have an appointment is on th 12'th January 12pm. Mom went like ," WHAT! " and started calling my dad and it's him who then contacted this ulu dental clinic in my neighbourhood that I'd never noticed all my life and POOF! I'm due for extraction that evening. Sheesh! All these came as a shock to me... Unprepared, helpless, anxious, worried, scared, I went down that afternoon and as I waited outside the dental room, I msged weijun. Almost cried when she called...I'm so afraid la! But still..thanks to those who'd tried to calm me down and of course, my dear mom and dad who'd waited outside the dental room while I had my surgery... Loved them to bits... Anyway, I went in and the dentist was really nice. She knew that I'm freaking out and yea, she tried calming me down, talking to me while she did the surgery...telling me breathe and all..Nice ((: Oh did I mentioned that I had to extract all of my wisdom teeth in the end? Yea...the dentist told me that due to gravity, when the lower wisdom tooth is removed, the upper ones will start growing downwards and eventually it'll start knocking on my gums...so she suggested to remove it as well la...so yea...There goes my molars)):
The surgery was really horrible...Though they'd already injected anesthesia into my gums, all the pressure that they applied and the drillings. Just plain horrible... Ewwww... Anyway, after the surgery, I started feeling wobbly... I started having cold sweat and I almost lost conscious. Dentist said that 'cuz I've got low blood pressure so it's nothing much...And yea, guessed that I gave my mom a real shock of her life... That night, I cried myself to sleep cuz the pain was horrible after the anesthesia wears off and the bleeding just wont stop... So my dad swopped places with me and I spent the night with my mom... How nice of her ((: See! MOM RULES =D
This morning, dentist called and asked about my condition. Very sweet (: Now it aint that pain already but I'm seriously NOT looking forward to 3rdJanuary (2nd extraction) ... I'm scared...once again...
