Today I was terrified. Though I'm not ready to go for extraction of my wisdom teeth but my heart giving me courage to do so. My heart is pumping so fast till I feel like fainting!
I drove alone to dental clinic nearby. Immediately, I'd called for the procedure. I heard from my friend that it is impossible to get both wisdom teeth to be extracted in one go but my dentist allowed to. She said my both wisdom teeth had decayed due to difficult in brushing it. And she said it actually won't caused too much pain if to removed both in one go.So then I agreed.
My heart continued beating fast! Till she injected local anaesthesia to my gum it actually doesn't hurt much as I thought it could be.It was actually fear more than pain... When the local starts to take place, partially my nostril gets numbed followed by my throat. Initially, I feel nauseated due to lost of sensation and I can't swallow. For a little while, the effect gone. After 10 minutes, the dentist started to extract my teeth. It happen so fast till I didn't even realize that both had been extracted.
Afterall, I was then asked to bite on the gauzes to stop bleeding. The dentist did gave me Paracetamol for pain relief.and I had taken 2 tablets before the local anaesthesia wind off. I bite on the gauzes about 2 hours and after that the bleeding subsequently stopped. Numbness eventually gone about 6 hours and yet I don't feel much pain. I would say more to discomfort rather than pain.
The extraction cost me RM160
