I had a previous post on my visit to the dentist. I did mention that I had to extract my wisdom tooth eventually. So I did. Today.
I was jittery. All you out there can understand my pissing-in-the-skirt feeling, surely. Prayer was requested at Cell Group yesterday. I felt peace after that. But still jittery.
I was secretly hoping that the Dentist would be down with flu, called in sick or the dental hospital burnt down by some arsonist. No such luck. It was there when I drove in this afternoon for the 2pm appointment.
The Dentist was friendly and nice. As expected of most Thai. He assured me that everything will be fine. Gave me 2 injections which didn't hurt at all, an x-tray before the extraction and I was out within 30 mins.
The whole process was very pleasant and didn't hurt at all, till now. My anesthetic just wearing off after 5 1/2 hours of application.

Anti-biotic, painkiller and anti-swell medication
The tooth. Looks pretty ugly and dirty. Wonder why it looks like this. The middle looks pretty black.
I have an appointment next week to take out the stitches. Not sure if he will extract the other wisdom tooth then.
The total bill came to THB3,000 (RM300 / USD90).
