In 1990 in my 1st year at UIA I had a Wisdom tooth removed. It had been impacting against the Gigi geraham next to it. Because of the impact the tooth had a minor crack.
Needless to say I had been having problems with the tooth ever since.
Finally with only half of the tooth left it started throbbing last Wednesday and with no further delay I appeared bright and early on Thursday at the ******, Plaza Damas.
Normally I would see my Dr, ie Dr Ikmal Hisham. But he wasn't in yet so I went along with a GP Dentist. Kalau dah sakit tu asanya malas nak tunggu lah kan..
The Dentist manually injected my gums. That should have been my signal for things to come. Dr Ikmal normally uses the Clinic's computer controlled syringe. Since it is robotically controlled, I normally wouldn't feel a thing since the pressure of the syringe is somehow regulated to the pressure tolerance of the human body. That is why I bring Iman there.
Since my tooth was already "reput"-ed the Dr pulled the toth and the stump broke at the shoulder and left in the roots I which I need to remind you were also reput. (All three roots).
Since the Dr said she couldn't grip the roots because of the reput She would have to dig the roots out - individually.

Never have I had my head more violated. with the Nurse sometimes forgetting to vacuum the saliva.. hak, hak, tuih cough cough choke choke.

The Doctor poked into my jaw with Items that looked like blunt Ice-picks. Towards the bottom of the root (I don't remember which- since there were three) I was starting the feel the pain again (Please note- I know the difference between PAIN and PRESSURE) The Dr injected the Lignocaine(?) until she said that it was already too much (over dose).

The whole thing lasted about an hour.
KROK KEROK KOREERROOK KOREK KOreok Kokok
My knees were up to my chest already... literally, and my head in the nurses headlock.
Krk Kreok KoRek Kre kok Kreokok Korok
why she coudn't have just used the drill to drill or grind away at the roots I don't know.
KOrek kerokok koorok AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Suffice to say I ended up lying down at the Dentist's sofa (at the reception) thereafter for three hours (Crying... I don't bullshit). Take kisah mak datin ka, puan sri ka mampoih pi... I lepakked at Nana's house. from 12 pm and slept until he next morning.
I woke up at 6am and made burgers out of mince meat in Nana's fridge. I don't think she has discovered them yet at the time of this writing...
Oh I have another appointment on Tuesday to remove another root of another tooth... damn!
