And so i went to the dentist today to extract my wisdom tooth.
I thought it was just gonna be a short painful one but nooo... it was rather long and yes the pain comes in rather slowly.
I think this is my number one "most painful experience" i have ever felt.
When the dentist injected me with 2 shots of anesthetic, the whole right side of my face was super numb.
I can even slap myself without feeling the pain.
After eating the pills, ouh before that, they made me watch this short presentation on what exactly is wisdom tooth and blablabla.
Took a look at my x-ray and was shock of the position of my tooth.
Then starts the nightmare. They kinda cover my face, leaving my nose and mouth open.
Then they sliced up or made holes in the tooth and tried to wiggle it out.
The way the dentist did it is like he's trying to unscrew my tooth. The pressure is unbearable even though i felt numb.
The assistant even had to hold on to my jaw.
After the tooth was taken out, the dentist asked me whether i would like to keep the tooth as a souvenir. Like wth.
The tooth was rather large. I was shocked to see it for myself. Can't believe the tooth that big got stuck at the corner of my mouth.
Well this is not the end. I still got 3 more teeth to go. Thank God i didnt agree to extract 2 teeth at the same time.
Right the pain is decreasing. Which is good. It kept bleeding just now. I was scared to open my mouth wide.
All in all a hella experience.
Just this little surgery cost like 600+. Phew.
but worth it.
