After a long postpone to get my wisdom tooth extracted as there isnt place for it to emerge, I decided I had enough of the pain the irregular flare of bacterial infection cause me. It was bothering me as the eve of chinese new year, I had a bacterial infection and therefore cause me to loose my appetite for food as the festive season was just about to start. Sigh...so no, I didnt gain a few pounds rather i hold my face and groan in pain..
I extracted both the upper and lower wisdom teeth on the left side of my jaw. Because I had extracted both the upper and lower wisdom teeth on the right side of my jaw, Im pronounced "ISIOTIC" and BLUR all in one go. I have no wisdom tooth left as all 4 is no more permenant residance in my oral cavity. The dentist that perform that minor surgery thought I was 17 and that it was normal for me to experience the emergence of the wisdom tooth.. I on the other hand wished that I was 17 and I have a bigger jaw..to accomodate those blasted wisdom tooth.
As the anesthetic wears off, I feel a throbbing pain on my jaw. I taste blood in my saliva each time I swallow and that feels gross. Sounds like a vampire in the making. I took 2 types of painkiller each with an interval of one hour and one of it was suppose to make me sleep but it didnt as Im still wide awake watching Nip/tuck. At least it did numb the throbbing pain.
Lo and behold, I got a nasty swell the next day when I woke up from sleep. A friend of mine has commented that she thought I was keeping a sweet in my left cheek as I was talking to her. My mom says it reminds her of the time when I was young and I refuse to swallow my rice and keep it in my mouth. To me, as I look at myself in the mirror... I looked as though I put on weight and it somehow alter my jawline to become more squarish.
Anyway, the tooth fairy send an SMS saying he( the "she" retired long ago) will grant me any wishes if I produce my tooth as evidence. Now, as my jaw hurt and there's a swell on my left cheek giving me the appearance of a hamster storing its food in its cheek... I'm trying not to think of the pain and focus on what should I ask from the tooth fairy :)
