As per my previous blog, went for the surgery today..reached the National Dental Centre punctually at 2pm..but as usual, waited to about 2.30pm for my turn. Gotta remove all accessories, wear their operation gown over own clothes, and wear head & shoes' covers.
I had the same dentist as my previous visit as requested and he went through the procedures with me like he should before we go in for the surgery. To be frank, he's quite cute, not those 'shuai shuai' kinda cute but the adorable kind..hahaa..he's got a baby face and wears a pair of black-rimmed specs =p
And I find him pretty good cause he kept checking if I'm ok during and after the surgery even when i'm out of the surgery room and removing the operation gown n stuff..very nice & responsible right?..hehe =D
But the whole process was quite a scary one, coz the dentist gotta break the wisdom tooth in order to take it out..so before he can do that, he gotta weaken the tooth by 'drilling' into it..so imagine a drill going into your mouth!..i can't see what does the drilling tool looks like as they covered my eyes, but i'm glad they did that coz i will really freak out if i see the tools they used..kekee..my tooth/bone was stronger than we thought so it took the dentist quite a while to get it out, in bits & pieces..hehe..the whole process took so long that i almost dozed off!!..i'm quite surprised with myself too, the dentist and nurse were struggling with my tooth and there i was dozing off with my mouth wide open, i dunno how i can do that too..hahaa..the upper one was just a simple extraction which came out pretty easily. Left the place around 4.45pm after getting the medicine from the pharmacy..everything can be paid with my Medisave, so that's really great!..hehee =D
Will need to go back on the following Tue to remove my stitches..hope the process will be a painless one.. =s
So now, i'm sitting at home with half my face still numb..later gotta cook some cereal from dinner liao, think can make use of this chance to go on a diet..hahaa..have a great week ahead! =)
