Due to a last min cancellation by someone, I dashed to Alexander Hospital yesterday for my dental appt with my mum in toll, who pestered to come along when I was fetching my referral letter from home.
Alexander Hospital is freaking big actually, misleading ppl with its solo building seen from the outside. There's actually a myriad of corridors n buildings within.
Well, I cant even remember being pushed/carried along the old corridors 24 yrs ago. Neither can my mum.
The dental centre, I think it sucks. Its full of young punks! I feel like a guinea pig!
N the dentist. ARGH! I tell her exactly where the pain is, what is causing it, etc etc, she continued KNOCKING on the pain part, and the other side. N took 2 xrays when I already had an xray for her.
Feels like trapping me to the bed and extorting my money.
So with the 2 xrays, I found out..
I have NOT ONE BUT TWO LAZY WISDOM TEETH! N the other root canal has minor infection!
Yeah, n nothing were done to them.
N there's a decaying front tooth (there for very long already), which she insisted I must do it now.
I'm like.. I'll fix it after the root canal (molar).
No no, root canal too late already. Must do it NOW!
Yah, fix my NERVES 1st!
No No, u go fix that front tooth 1st!
Har? Right.
Anyway she was meaning, to fix that front tooth ASAP b4 it hits the nerves (of the front tooth) n requires RCT (for the front tooth).
I know I need to fix that front tooth oso, but that dentist over at Clementi ask me to do my nerves 1st mah..
Argue until my nerves popping out.
Then she went on the LENGTHY procedure of explaining the RCT, which I already understood, n she knew I did RCT b4. She's virtually jumping at my nerves at that point of time.
Hai Hai, yes yes, just do it!!
Then she finally began the injection & operation. Oww.
*I'm having occasional throbbing of nerves at the ears. Yes. EARS! Wah raoz..
