Recovery Process

This post is special to my relatives who have been so worry about the minor oral surgery (MOS). Hehe.. Buang gigi je..

I reached the clinic at 8 am while my MOS should be on 9 am. But on 8.15 am I was called to the operation room. The dentist explained again the procedures and I needed to sign a permission letter.

Ingatkan wajib remove 3 geraham. The compulsory to remove was only one teeth. The others were optional as the dentist viewed my x-tray. As long there is no infected to the remain tooth, I can keep both.

8.30 pagi, dentist bagi 2 shot bius. Sampai ke telinga kesannya. 8.45 am the surgery started. And it was ended 1 hour and half later. Triple time longer than usual. Normally the surgery would only took 30 to 45 minutes. The dentists were having problem to detect my teeth root because it located near the jaw bone. Yeah, dentists. While the surgery in progress, my dentist called her mate to help her. It was 1 Malaysia surgery - a Chinese and an Indian dentists plus a Malay nurse.

Lepas siap buang the whole gigi, gusi kene 3 jahitan. Satu jahitan tu dia kenakan kat pipi. I can't see the stitches. But that was the conversation between the dentist and nurse. But it made sense since I can't open my mouth widely after the surgery.

This is right after the operations.

Gambar sangat huduh. Jadi harus hitamkan mata.

At first, merah kat tepi bibir tu ingat darah kering. Try to lap, tapi tak mahu hilang pulak kesan darah tu. Nak lap kuat sikit sakit, so biar je sampai dah kurang sakit baru ingat nak bersih kan betul darah.

I can't talk on the first day. Bila orang bertanya apa-apa, all my communication is through text. Bapak pon then communicate through text jugak.. Alahai.. Bapak ni suke ngajuk tau.. Hehe...

My late lunch. I needed 45 minutes to finish it.

I only took potato mashed, porridge and nestume since the surgery. I don't know why I feel so hungry. I eat one large size of potato mashed and 2 bowls (the above bowl) of porridge in order to rasa perut berisi. Ibu said because I have to take a lot medicines. Maybe kot. Ingatkan boleh la kurus sikit kan. Hampeh.

To sleep is so painful. The surgery has made effect my nerves on neck and shoulder. I have been like robot on the first day. Tak bole nak toleh. So, I have to sleep straight. Tak bole kalih-kalih. Auuw...

The second day. Pipi masih bengkak. Obvious kan?.

Tepi bibir tu was actually luka. No wonder lap, merah-merah tak mau hilang. My friend told from his experienced that he can't neither talk nor eat on the second day. Alhamdulillah, it wasn't happened to me. I can talk! Huhu. But the pronunciation was not as clear as normal. And my appetite is like usual. Hehe.

The gum seem no longer in pain. But my neck and shoulder still. My tongue still numb too. I was on two days of medical leaves. Because of the neck and shoulder haven't feel so good, Ibu didn't allowed me to go UM today.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better. And I wish by Saturday, the gum will be fully recovered since I will be raya at KL!

Oh ya, I have another meeting with the dentist to remove the stitches which I don't know when. Am pretty can't wait for the day!

Okay, need to off now to eat my lunch and take all the six medicines given. Will see you later!
