ok. so i booked an appointment with the dentist today.
i figured with so much shit going on now, i should just go and confirm that its my wisdom teeth giving me problems and have some peace of mind.
went to a dentist at lucky plaza after looking through some reviews.
well he is very pro and nice. before i saw him i had to do this xray of my whole mouth which is damn zai. then the moment i stepped into the room, he said 'your wisdom tooth giving you problem, right?' -__-"
ok when i looked at the xray its pretty obvious. and trust my wisdom teeth to be the WORST POSSIBLE KIND - they are growing horizontally and therefore need to be taken out. haiiii.
i guess i was already expecting this. just needed a dentist to confirm it for me. the gd thing is i can claim from medisave - the more wisdom teeth i pluck, the more i can claim. but i think i will only pluck the bottom lower jaw 2 teeth first, as they are the problematic ones. and im not sure if i can stand the pain of plucking more than that. so apparently i only need to pay for general anesthetic. awesome. at least there's some gd news.
another piece of gd news is tt aside from the wisdom teeth, there's nothing else wrong with my teeth. no holes, decay or what. i am amazed. looks like my years of religiously sticking to the 'brush teeth twice a day' regime has paid off. i remember as a kid my parents used to FORCE me to brush my teeth. i had quite a few tooth decays then, and often had to go to the sch dentist -_- but after awhile it became a gd habit i guess, and now i cant slp if i dont brush my teeth. so many thanks to my parents for that.
next wk is out of the question for the surgery, i am packed from morning till night with work stuff. so i guess it has to be sometime next next wk? problem is, i have graduation ceremony coming up and im worried my face will look swollen in photos. so now need to dig up some free time to get this done. 5 day MC btw. worse come to worse will have to do it during wkends and 'forfeit' 2 days MC.
who knew that a tiny tooth could cause so much trouble? but i guess i gotta suck it up and just go thru with it.. its now or never, and best not to delay these kind of things.
so my dear friends, excuse me if ill be extremely busy & uncontactable for the remaining of the month. i will blog whenever i can. but if u all want to jio me out, pls wait till oct. sorry! :(
