Last Friday I went for oral surgery. Which I myself didn’t
predict that to happen. It all started last Wednesday when I went to the
dentist to cabut gigi; my upper geraham that is. So the doctor checked and told
me that the exraction won’t be as the usual way, but through surgery instead.
So I firmed up my decision and kuatkan semangat to have the surgery done.
Pejam celik pejam celik.. Friday had finally come. Ern
accompanied me that day since her office hour starts at 1.00 pm. 9 am we went for breakfast at warung borak2
just the opposite road from the clinic. Then, after the breakfast, we went to
the dentist and at that time it was still early and no other patient was there.
The staffs were still busy cleaning toilet and etc.
So first.. I went to toilet to brush my teeth and yak yak..
ya lahh.. biasalah.. Butterfly in stomach..nnt once it started cannot go to the
loo sudah. And of course must clean my teeth first before the doctor start
digging all her utensils in my mouth.
The anesthetic
3 injections for the anesthetic and it successfully made my
mouth numb. I cried during the first injection.
I was scared to death that I hold the kakak’s hand tightly..
after all it just only the beginning. After numb, they x-ray my teeth first before
starting the surgery. At this point of time, I was really scared that I couldn’t
help but crying and asked the doctor whether I can hold ern’s hands during the
operation. The doctor is so nice that she let ern in and asked me to be tough.
The cutting
I could tell that it had already started the moment she
asked me to shake my legs and breath. Cause I can feel the blood coming out but
there was indeed no pain. i don’t know how to best describe my feeling but the
experience was horrible. I cried again during the operation. Not that I was in
pain, but knowing the fact that they were actually cutting off your gum was
really made me scared. Enough by just hearing the sounds of the equipment I
guess.
The operation went well and the climax was when I almost
swallowed my own teeth. I could tell that they were actually trying to push my
teeth out since both kakak n doctor were at the same time asked me to shake my
legs again and breathe harder. Then the tooth fall off.. I remember I heard the
doctor said, jangan tertelan gigi.. and she asked me to bend over and said..
okay.. operation done.. and they asked me to kumur all the darah..
The stitches.
I’ve never expected that they will jahit the gum and was
shocked when the doctor asked me to lie down again. Then she started sewing my
gum like a sewing machine. 6 stitches and done.. before it’s over they gv me
pills and tampal kapas to avoid bleeding. The experience was really horrible
and will not forget it the rest of my life.. the last place I want to go is the
dentist.
