Went to the dentist ytd and had my wisdom tooth removed!
Extracted both my left upper and lower molar...
The dentist say I have to remove my wisdom tooth because part of my tooth was covered by the gum, hence if don't get it remove, bacteria will grow in between the gum and tooth and could lead to infection, gum swelling etc. That explained why I have so many episodes of on off pain...

I had a phobia towards visiting the dentist since young. All thanks to the primary school dentist who extracted my tooth so damn painfully when I was primary one. Till now I could still remember the scary experience vividly.
So, I had my appointment booked one week ago, and I kindda regret booking my appt one week in advanced. I should had did it earlier! Cuz throughout my last week, I kept thinking about the tooth extraction thing and end up having nightmares for a few days. Moreover, as i've seen on dogs how tough it is to extract a healthy tooth, I was scare that this apply to human as well. Since the anatomy is more or less the same. hahahaha.

But turns out, the procedure wasn't as scary as I thought! It wasn't as painful as what I experienced during my primary school. lol. And my dentist was really nice! He explained to me about the procedure, what to look out for during and post sx. And reassured me many times that mine was considered one of the easiest kind of wisdom tooth extraction and he'll be done in no time. And during the sx, he keep asking if i'm alright, feel any pain and explained to me what he is doing now and how that may feel uncomfortable etc. Totally nice to the max. His reassurance really help to make me feel better.
I had change my view towards dentist. Or at least i'll visit just this one dentist from now on.

So far i'm feeling alright, apart from the swollen face and the sore. And can't open my mouth too big. I've been drinking porrige since ytd and i miss solid food~~
Ohh. And I got 1 week MC. Kindda guilty though cuz work have been really short of people now..aiya, forget it. can't possibly work in this state anyway.

And...the right side of my tooth need to be extracted at some point too. hmm....can I do it next year? cuz I only got 14 days MC per year. lol.
