♥ NESY: chocolates overdose+ distorted tooth = nightmare $$
I must admit Im a chocolate lover (duh?!), Im not a good teeth cleaner as well, plus...I had a distorted tooth at this particular spot....In the end, it caused a disaster, to my poor mouth and my wallet $$. =(
So yeh, the distorted tooth had been sitting there quietly for quite some time until few years ago I was curious why my short toungue can touch the teeth easily. Under curiousity, I looked into the mirror and suprisingly found a 'third party' joining the 1st premolar of my upper teeth. When I went for my dentist appointment in Malaysia, one dentist advice me to get rid of it while the other one said just don't bother about it. Personally Im not a big fan of going to a dental clinic, course I will be happy to not bother about it!
As time goes by, the extra little tooth started to have some 'little actions', trying to get some attention from me, sometimes it can be very painful, sometimes it just sits there quietly. I always ignored it, until YESTERDAY, when I was working, it suddenly alarmed me NON STOP. Taking two tabs of neurofen did make it to be obedient, but only temporary, for a few hours. In the end, I just can't stand it, I google and searched some nearby dental clinic contact numbers. Some just said: Oh, the earliest appointment is next week, oh, you will need to wait for another three days.... Im like WHAT? My tooth is aching now, I CANT WAIT. Luckily there's this friendly lady suggested me to this particular so called emergency dental clinic. In the end, they will see me tomorrow morning. I CANT WAIT!
During the night, I did hesitate to remove or not to remove the tooth, because I knew its going to cost me a bomb! So I used a mirror to see how the poor tooth looked like now. Surprise surprise, its DECAYED and part of it had turned black! Yukssss.... So I had decided, no matter how, I shall go for the dentist! God bless me! =(
This was how my poor 'third party' looked like in my oral cavity, right next to my 1st premolar.
A closer look of it, can you actually see the blackened bit? =S Yukks nesy
My after look, say goodbye to decayed 'third party'.

So I went to the clinic today, the operator told me that I will need to go to the SURGICAL CLINIC. My heart sunk. * Oh good gracious, is it THAT bad? SURGERY?* So off I went to another surgical clinic, waited for 15 minutes, finally my turn. The dentist was nice and friendly, but from the moment she said she needs to take an X- ray for my teeth, shes a DEVIL WOMAN! I sensed something BAD. So after the X ray result, she told me I will need a minor surgery for my decayed tooth, since its involving the tooth, gum and bone. She will need to take out my partial gum! She asked me:' Ka Mei, how can you stand the toothache for so long?' Im like...ok...I never really had a major toothache until yesterday?
Hence I put on a sunglasses, she switched on the tv which was situated at the ceiling, it was very comfy...thats IF you don't have to face a tooth surgery! She injected 4 syringes of local anaesthetic drug (which i think its lidocaine) into my cheek, gum and the premolar tooth. Everything that happened next wasn't that scary, i can just felt pressure in my mouth, seeing her using bone curettes, extracting forceps... and FINALLY, the stubborn decayed tooth is out! All i can taste in my mouth is blood. The dentist gave me a pack of antibiotic and pain killers (codeine forte).

My after look, say goodbye to decayed 'third party'.I still went to uni, and my besties took me for Baskin Robbins which was really sweet of them! And yes, still went for my lab class. Everything was alright, with a bit of pain, so i took two tabs of Codeine forte. I thought everything will be alright. After roughly an hour, while i was standing and listening to what the lab assistant was trying to tell us, I BLACKED OUT! Excess blood loss? Codeine that causes drowsiness? Insufficient food intake? I don't know!=S Well thank God for good friends around that always give support and care and help =)
