I can tell you guys, if you need dental treatments, NDC is the place to go, despite the wrong teeth that they extracted out.
My surgery was in the afternoon at 2pm, then I took a bus from my house right to NDC. I panicked all the way for the whole trip, I wondered what would happen during my surgery.
He told me i would hear very loud drilling noises, that didn't scare me, what scared me was the pain that i will feel.
My body is so weak to a ptn where it is not suitable for general anesthesia, and so i opted for local anesthesia. a few days before they called me, they say dr yong was on course and couldnt operate for me! i scolded the nurse and demanded i want him! the nurse laughed and said she would ask the doc for me.
finally she gave me a date for LA, by the same doc.
And so, i went up to 3rd floor, and then when i was signing the medisave form, my doc came in thru the door! hahaha i didnt see him, my mum was excited and kept asking me to see him!
after that we went to a room and then the doc came out, and asked me and i told him i went to a and e a few days ago. he like.... pitied me and was damn gentle to me!
Then a nurse pulled me as i walked reluctantly in, the nurse teased me and told everybody that i was like her daughter becos she was literally pulling me into the operating theater!
the person told me the doc is very gentle and pro. :)
Then she brought me in to the room gt lots of needles and drill and scalpel and i am not scared of those at all. the nurse kept holding on to my hand and consoling me and they were so frenly i wasnt rly scared! but when the doc took out the needle, he told me that was be the most painful part of the whole surgery, and so i stared at the needle, it was big, and then i told him i was gg to cry! when he heard tt he panicked and was like... ok relax, a prick only. at first the nurse told me was 4 injections, in the end he said I was not numbed enuf, he scared tt i may feel pain afterwards, so he added 4 more became 8 -.-
the injections were done on my inner lips, gums and one very near the throat.
AHAHA! i am gonna slap those who told me that injections are painful and unbearable. they were no pain at all!!!! cos the dental surgeon handsome ma, so i kept staring at him till i forgot. hahahaha
then the first thing was to wait for the anesthesia to numb the area. And he kept cfming with the nurse my ic and which teeth to take out. they scared they make another mistake haha.
waited and waited, nurse asked me question and then i answered and then...
surgery lights on! then they covered my eyes, i told them i want to see but they say the lights were too bright and so no choice bt cover my eyes. im not scared of the drills i ma gonna see ltr, bt if they covered my eyes, i cannot see the surgeon!!!!!!
then he stood on my right, cos my eyes were covered, he tapped my shoulder like im his friend like tt, and told me he would be standing on my right side.
so sweet!
haha, though my eyes were covered, i kept looking at the right, i see nth bt shadow of him -.-
then it started.
he took out a plier to pluck out my pre molar, he didnt shake the tooth, he just pulled and everything came out. whoo! one tooth done!
the other tooth was more diff. my left pre molar was embedded inside my gums so have to cut my gums and drill the bone! sounds scary? but no i love it!
i can assure you will feel nth but pressure.
cos the tooth damn hard to take out, i can hear him breathing very restlessly haha handsome leh.
I knew he was cutting my gums open, and then he kept digging my tooth, then he knock and then use drill, my head vibrated.
And then it came out lor, during this, i kept holding on to the nurse hands! the doc saw when he finished the surgery, he said can let go liao, cos he stitching nw. everything done!
then i see a bit of him stitching me like sewing clothes lor. haha i feel nth!
hahahahaha everything done in 30 mins!
bt a lot of bleeding lor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha they kept praising me for being so gd in the OT. cos normally ppl would freak out and scream, im proud of myself i didnt do any of that! im born to be a anesthesiologist! Im no scared of needles!
then they brought me to a chair and i rested and then he came to see me! haha and then erm, he said everything is ok and i was discharged!
done!
