Hello Lovelies,
I'm back updating the blog again. With a very 'painful' blog update. Went to extract my wisdom tooth yesterday night as it has been hurting since last year August, I wanted to extract but lately, I found out that I was pregnant so didn't went already. After extracting was around 11pm plus and I reach home at 12am. It was the first time that I know that I have ever came across that a Dental clinic close up this late, anyway I had my wisdom tooth extracted at Wong Dental Surgery which is located at Hougang Ave 8.
" A wisdom tooth, in humans, is any of the usual four third molars. Wisdom teeth usually appear between the ages of 16 and 25. Most adults have four wisdom teeth, but it is possible to have fewer or more, in which case the extras are called supernumerary teeth. Wisdom teeth commonly affect other teeth as they develop, becoming impacted or "coming in sideways." They are often extracted when this occurs. " - taken from Wikipedia
My wisdom tooth belong to the horizontal one. The wisdom tooth don't grow out and has no space to grow out, therefore causing the pain and worst is that it has make my tooth in front of my wisdom tooth to be decay, so I had it remove too and thus, I have remove three tooth yesterday night. The top & bottom wisdom tooth with the one in front of the bottom wisdom tooth on my right side. :(
To be honest there wasn't much pain removing wisdom tooth as I've heard that it was so painful and after going through it, I think that giving birth is even pain. Once I went in, the dentist put the numbing cream on both my upper & lower gum to numb it before putting Local Anesthesia to let your gum has numbing feel that won't let you feel any pain at all other than pressure.
After putting local Anesthesia, I was told to do a X-Ray and so I had it done and he show me and explain it to me. After that, he start to prepare for the surgery. The whole process actually has no pain at all, only pressure like I have mention but this pressure might let you feel a little uncomfortable but everything is bearable. Because I heard that it was painful and etc, the moment I went it, I start trembling and feel so scare.
Then I keep ask the doctor and tell him, I am very scare as I'm worry of the pain. He ask me who told me that it's pain, I say I heard people saying that it's pain and he reply me, "you've to see who do for you." I was really surprise and speechless, but it's quite true though. As his clinic is always pack and appointment is always full. Therefore, I told myself I got to have confident in him.
And, very soon the surgery was done. Feel uncomfortable since yesterday, but no pain in involved, everything is still bearable and I can't had any food, feel so difficult to eat right now. Therefore, I only had 2 cups of cereal drink in the morning and noon, and guotian soup for dinner but I having a hard time eating! Other than that, everything is alright.
Oh, by the way, it cost me a total of $1,200 for extracting the three tooth. For the clinic, MediSave is approve so I'm using my Dad's MediSave and place a deposit of $200. After the fees has been deducted, they'll return me the deposit. Therefore, I think it's quite good that it can be pay by MediSave thus don't have to worry where to find the money to pay also! :P
After 10 days, I'll be removing my left side two wisdom tooth again on the top & bottom. Let's hope & pray that it'll be like the right side, smooth and fast, no pain and bearable! (Y) (:
Till than, love ya.
