while chewing my vegetables (yes... vegetables) during dinner yesterday, i felt a piece of "stone". so i spit it out and realised this piece of "stone" was actually part of my tooth! its about 0.5cm, considered big to me. quickly checked if which tooth it was, if it was bleeding etc. realised it was the last tooth, no blood and no pain.
went to the dentist today and was told that the broken tooth was my wisdom tooth. apparently it was already broken, so any pressure to it would have chipped it. then the next news - i would have to remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth! given a choice to do GA or LA. being one of those who do not want to subject myself staring at my dentist while getting my tooth extracted, and not wanting to subjecting myself to the pain twice, i made a decision to do GA. as i will get 10 days of mc, i need to plan the dates properly to ensure my work and personal schedule is not badly affected.
so pray for me all - THE DAY: 24th Aug, 12.30pm. my operation (hopefully just the teeth and retain my wisdom! haha!)
GA for teeth extraction! Truth be told, u just wanted that 10days of mc right??
