Last monday 24.5.2021, i have an appointment with jabatan bedah mulut and maksilofasial to remove my wisdom tooth, molar 🦷 number 38. Hoho
The plan is to remove just ONE tooth. Unfortunately after the dentist examining my xray, she counselled me to extract another tooth! Which is the upper tooth opposite the molar tooth.
And if i agree, she will extract both at the sane time! I was like, can aa?? I tot have to wait and do one by one? But to think again, nahh better do it at once! Setel.
The extraction wasnt very painful. This is due to the bius they gave u. The injection they put to numb ur mouth, that is painful! Especially when they want to extract the upper tooth.
I was given arcoxia-etoricoxib 120mg first, it is a painkiller medicine, to help me after the bius effect gone. Then the dentist prescribed me ibuprofen 2tab tds prn.
Then balik. Drive home. Alone. Well i imagined my husband can teman me on that day. Hurmmm… he said he cant. So pglah sorang2. Huhu
Now day 3 post-extraction.
Still cant chew properly. Still sakit2 lagi part sebelah mulut. Overall it takes time. I googled, and found out that it may take weeks to heal and for the gum to close the hole. Yaa quite scary when u look into mirror and see the hole.
Ok. Stop dulu. Gud nite dear. 🥰
