Extractions

Last Saturday noon, I had my extractions... I was pretty nervous the whole morning... after i left office, had a satisfying lunch before seeing my regular dentist, Dr. Ooi.. as usual he jokes around.. he tries to loosen me up abit... the injections for the local anesthesia was so painful and agonising... coz i need to anesthesize the whole mouth so for each corner is around 4 jabs.. so in total i was poked 16 times (?!) ... and then before he start, he had to poke my gums etc to see if i am fully anesthesized... initially, i dun feel anything but after everything wears out, these cuts does make my gums sore... however, as compared to the extraction site... it's chicken feet..

The extraction of the 4 pre-molars was a breeze, first i felt no pain.. just pressure, second... He was fast... the LA took like 20mins but the extraction is like 5mins... but having the whole lower face numb is no fun... when i tried to rinse my mouth, i couldn't control my lips and i ended becoming a merlion... splatter water all over the floor.. had a good laugh..

Over the weekend, i was dizzy most of the time, the bleeding was on and off.. up til now.. gums still swollen and my cheeks are swollen too...

Due to my job... i need to talk quite often.. be it the phone or face to face...i already like dread talking now... i wish everything can be done via email... like real...

Will post some photos later...
