a trip to the dentist.

story written below is based on real life story.


while i was eating Choco Crispy the other day, i broke my tooth. at first, i thought it was just the cereal that's stucked on my teeth therefore i just ignore it and continue enjoying my cereal. after a few bites, i can feel myself chewing something that's not cereal, it feels rather hard and when i went to have a look at my teeth at the mirror. i noticed that i broke my tooth.

mother brought me to the gov. dentist the next day but the number were all finish and so i have to go other day. i have to go to the dentist to either remove the tooth or "fill" the tooth because it cuts my tongue.

my mother brought me to the dentist around 7.15 and i told her that it's still so early as it's open at 7:45am. my mother didn't bother and still drive me there. when i reach there, there were already people waiting over there. i guess that it's true that mother is always right. the receptionists hasn't even arrive. i placed my IC and wait like what others did.

i waited until my name is called, pay, and waited outside the dentist room. there're children who went in to the dentist room happily or with a so-so mood but end up coming out crying. some even shout out loud inside the room, everyone outside the room can hear it. it really scares me.

when my number is called, i went into the room and the dentist asked what's wrong, i told her i broke my tooth. she examine it with some tools that she's holding and told me that she has to remove the teeth because the cavity in my tooth is too big. :(

cavity: a hollow space or a pit in a tooth, most commonly produced by caries. A cavity may be artificially made to support dental restorations.

i always thought only kids have cavity but i was wrong. boohoo. even my mother have cavity. her teeth are scary, she showed me just now. *shivers*

the dentist first inject some make-your-teeth/jaw/mouth-numb-medicine on my jaw, and she asked me to wait outside. for the first time, my legs were trembling. my not scared, i'm just.. nervous because my tooth is not even shaky and the dentist is going to remove it.

i was asked to go in again, and this time she asked me to open my mouth as wide as possible and she assure me that i won't feel any pain, only a little pressure( though i don't feel any pressure). i thought only dentist uses a plier look alike tool, but in real life there really is this kind of dentist. i saw my dentist holding the plier look alike tool, i closed my eyes and before you even feel anything.. my tooth were removed.

i swear that i feel nothing, the make-you-numb-medicine is really good, though it last a little too long, it last for the whole morning. i can feel even 2-3 hours later i removed my tooth. she put some cotton thing to stop the blood from bleeding. and i can go home. oh, i get to keep my tooth too. :)

my premolar(i think) is so huge, compare with other teeth. the roots are freaking long i swear! i can even take a picture of it and post it up if you don't believe it but i'm too lazy to do so. =P i can see clearly the black thing that we called cavity on my tooth, i know it's nothing to be proud of.

the bleeding last for a long time, i don't know why it lasts so long that i don't feel like eating altho i'm so hungry because it's weird to eat with blood right? i cant rinse my mouth, no hot and cold food and drinks.

i feel like crying when i use my tongue to touch the place where the removed tooth use to stand. it's so empty, slippery and feels weird when i'm eating. sobs. i don't want to lose of my teeth, i want to have perfect teeth. thank god that the cavity is grown on my premolar, if it's on my canine or the front teeth, for sure i'm gonna look so ugly. so i should be a little happy for the fact that one of my premolar is gone. *fake smile*
