9:00 am

The dentist gave me a brief description pertaining the surgery I will be going through. It seems that my right wisdom tooth is lying horizontally and he need to need to slice off some flesh because the tooth is quite deep inside. He also shown me x-ray and told me that I might experience numbness in my lower right jaw for quite sometime if he accidentally injured one of teeny whiny nerve that ran right under that tooth.

9:05 am

After illustrating to me about the details, it�s time to mouth some pills. There is eight tablets which vary in various shape and colour. Two big round white one, two yellow medium oval shape and four small pink square ones. This is supposed to be pain killer I presumed. Next, it�s time for the dreaded injection. Suddenly, out of nowhere came a lengthy shiny silver syringe headed straight into my mouth right above the gum where the wisdom tooth is lying. Then come the second one penetrating into the inner side of the gum. After reloading the cartridge came the final one for the outer side of the gum. That was three injection in a row in less than six seconds!

9:15 am

Gradually, I felt that half of lips starting to get numb. Now it�s time for the bloody segment, first he made an incision on the gum above the wisdom tooth using his sabre sharp sparkling scalpel. I can taste the blood oozing out as he try to clear off the flesh that is obstructing the wisdom tooth from its journey to freedom.

9:25 am

After the tooth was visible, it�s time for dissecting the tooth into half. This is the most bloody part as the drill does it job. My whole cranium starts vibrating to the rhythm of the drill whilst droplet of blood starts splatter out to the dentist�s mask. Suddenly, the drilling ceased and I thought it was over finally, but it turn out that the darn Siemens drill malfunction. I anxiously waited and pray that the drill works whilst the dentist tries to rectify the drill with the help of his two assistant. They changed the drill head and it�s back to splitting the tooth into two.

9:40 am

Finally, after drilling for about ten minutes, with the help of a pair of pliers, CRACK!!! the top segment of the wisdom tooth parted with bottom segment. The whole tooth was distillate without encumbrance or hindrance

9:45 am

After the tooth was extracted, it time to patch up the crater caused by the annihilation of the wisdom tooth. With a �C-shape� needle, he meticulously stitches the cavity like a tailor completing his masterpiece.

10:00 am

Hip! Hip! Hooray !!! The ordeal is over but I can�t be too happy because Chinese New Year is just less than a week away and this means I won�t be able to enjoy some of the sumptuous feast awaiting me this year.
