HiHi!
this happened on the same day, but i separated it,
cause its 2 different subjects entirely,
and i think my previous entry was long enough.
yeah, went for my dental appointment with Dad today.
today, was to extract 1 teeth.
but the X-rays i had taken of my teeth,
showed some problems,
so the doc consulted his supervisor,
and see what she thinks.
yeah, and she thinks its good if i can extract 4 teeth, 2 on both sides,
left and right, up and down. symmetrical.
that's so that when i put on braces, there's space or sth like that.
went for another X-ray to confirm that i actually had a small teeth in my gum.
and then the doc went to get the dental surgeon to ask me,
whether i prefer General Aesthetics(GA) or Local Aesthetics(LA).
LA is just tat they're gonna inject into my gum, to numb the area,
while GA is i'll be asleep throughout the op.
yeah, i said LA.
Dad, of course thinks its a bad idea.
so, i got 5 teeth to extract, 4 on the outside, 1 inside.
but for today is 2 to extract only.
went down to the 2nd level,
while waiting for my turn,
fixed another appointment with the Co-ordinator.
and then went in for the extraction.
had 4 injections, or should i say 5?
this other doc poke wrong, and took it out,
and poke it in again.
for the injections, i can only say it felt terrible.
for today is on the right side,
so, 1 injection each for the right and left side of the gum,
and up and down.
the feeling was terrible of course.
like something burning ur gum or wad.
and then the doc begin the extraction.
now, this was worse.
shouldn't have looked at the equipment he was using.
it was scary, especially as he used it to pull my teeth out.
after the whole process, i was like still in shock.
then after feeling better, was asked to call Dad in.
and then told dad the things to watch out for.
no hot food, warm can. Hot food might cause bleeding to start again only.
so after feeling what it felt like, changed my mind.
my next appointment for the extraction is this thurs, 17/4,
and i changed from LA to GA.
hahaha..guess i have a v.low tolerance to pain after all.
dun laugh! go try it urself and u'll know.
seriously, putting on braces is such a pain.
even Mum agree with me.
have to extract so many teeth,
and cause of GA,
had to go for a blood test tmr.
but hopefully at the end of all this, i get to have a beautiful set of teeth!
haha..
wasn't looking forward to thursday.
though i had more or less know wad to expect,
(since i went for 1 operation b4, in 2004)
but still..
hahaha..
gtg now.
cya all, bb!
