my 2nd MOS. yucks!

my beautiful gigantic wisdom tooth that's gonna make me lose some weight after its' removal, i hope. lol!

i walked in to the first dentist and was really turned off by the 1st dentist. he read my x-ray wrongly and i had to correct him. obviously, i lost confidence in him. then i was sent to the 2nd one who was supposed to do my surgery (to remove two impacted wisdom tooth but slightly more complicated because my tooth is 2-3x larger than an average persons LOL). the 2nd one was really busy and seemed a little snobbish but she looks like she knows what she's doing. but when i heard that the surgery can only be done on the 29th of this month, i almost fainted.

how the heck am i going to last three more weeks when i cant even stand the pain for the rest of the day?! don't let me get started on the pain ok. when it attacks, i get brain freeze, dizzy, confused, starts shivering so badly that i get cold fever, and i'll get tears rolling out of my eyes automatically cause it's just way too ridiculously painful. i asked if there is any way it could be done earlier but the nurse said that the doctor is fully booked. oh great!

i went home and rolled around bed in pain. even with painkillers, i still cannot tolerate the pain. when i try to sleep, i still cant because the pain keeps me awake. and i gave up trying to sleep. at 6pm, i called up all the neighbourhood dentist and finally, i found one that was open till 9pm! quickly rushed there without dinner so i can be the first there when it reopens after their dinner break.

i went, waited and then it was my turn. the doc did another x-ray on me (had one earlier in the morning) and said the wisdom tooth can be removed immediately but would require minor oral surgery (MOS). i was reluctant because of my company's photoshoot and this huge event im attending this saturday but because the pain was unbearable, i obliged. the doctor was amused by how large my tooth was and after struggling for slightly more than 30 mins, it came out. i liked how he did the surgery cause it was really smooth. and he said the earlier dentist must've been mad (retarded is more like it) to recommend removing both wisdom tooth at one go! yes, i've got four impacted wisdom tooth (impacted means growing horizontally beneath the surface of the gums, above your nerves). two removed (one two years ago, one today), two more to go. for my previous entries on the previous surgery, click here.

again, like my previous MOS, i required four jabs of local anesthetic. and now that it has been almost two hours since the surgery ended, it's starting to wear off and im feeling the pain. let's hope it gets well soon because i don't want to miss this saturday's work and event. i'll try to post a photo of my gigantic wisdom tooth soon. mwahs. i'll be on a liquid diet so let's hope i can lose some weight now as i've ballooned way too incredibly hugeee to be acceptable by the society. HAHA!
