Now I appreciate I have a mouth and a tongue.
Only fluid is allowed. I've done with 9 meals of porridge with mashed salted eggs so far. Got a little improvement today. I ate spongy sponge cake =p and some mashed chicken.I also discovered a new recipe --steamed apple!Put it in the fridge so can have cooling effect. Mummy and xt both tasted it and their response is 'yucks'. Lol guess I like baby food and that's not a bad thing. 
Wisdom tooth....why you act so brutally and unwisely.?so stupid that you totally grew to a wrong direction. you can grow upright,grow left, grow right or even grow backwards towards throat..Why had you necessarily bumped into my other tooth...(Since it impacted my tooth so I got no choice but to remove it)
Something like this lah..should have taken a photo of the X-ray.
And I have to spend rm500 just to get you out there.
Dentist got me an X-ray at the first place. Then only she told me how was she going extract it. Since it grew towards my another tooth ,it had to be fragmented into one small and one big piece.
So first the dentist gave me injection of LA on my gum. I am super phobia of needle I tell you. So my hand involuntarily raised,trying to grab something. At one moment,I really feel like grabbing my dentist'a hand.Luckily she warned me :"what your hand doing?Put it down.Dont grab me."
Later her needle went into somewhere else then I was doomed. Then follow the logical step,cut my gum tissues...found the 'wisdom' tooth and pull it out and stitch it back. I really wanted to have a systemic anesthetics OMG,why can't sedate me straight away.? Since the tooth was in angle of 45 degree,the wound was big,I need a total of 4 stitches. My first ever suture happened to be on my gum ..so terrible.
That's it. In the procedure,I was so nervous and scared till my kept my eyes closed tightly. When the dentist was ready to pull my tooth out，she urged me to open my eyes(guess my muscle strongly contracted ?),pull my shoulder down,relax and breathe deeply. Then taaadaa it's over. Ahaha she even praised me 'good job ah girl, doing so well '.
The tooth was extracted completely. Earlier before the procedure,she explained to me that due to the inclined position, its root can stay inside the gum.
And she wouldn't take the risk to take the remaining root out as it can damage the underneath nerve. The tooth is going to stay in the gum either coming out after many many years as a small piece or it can be absorbed by the bone and disintegrated.
My face straight after the procedure. Immediately cold pressed it with ice cubes
Enough for one tooth I tell you.others please grow wisely!!thankyou.I beg you.*sigh*
P/s:thanks god I have mummy and xt both by my sides. Take good care of me, cook for me, accompany me through the damn surgery,buy me soft food and do anything possible to make me feel better.ILY.
Updated :Wednesday
This is the sixth day since the operation. Totally fine if I quietly stay there not talking. But super pain whenever I talk and chew. Super annoying. Can't really localize the pain area,but it's around throat and it goes up to left ear. Feel better if I press my ear or cold pressed it.
Xt called dentist on my behalf since I couldn't talk much. Now that my another side my gum is swollen with an ulcer at the last molar ,I'm super worried that it might be another 'culprit' tooth. But dentist said it might because I don't drink enough water. My gum turned soft super scary. But now is better once I started gargle with salt water. Hopefully everything is alright.
Today I ate chee cheong fun!Never know chee cheong fun kosong can taste so nice!lol

Updated:Thursday
Seriously can't bear on the pain and because there's no food for me in hostel (unless I cook porridge,steam apples everyday).Ain't nobody have time for that?8am class screwed up all my plans.
As soon as I reach SS, I rushed to see my dentist to see what she can do with the pain. The pain seriously went up to ears gosh!everytime I talk and chew,was like burning pain!
Apparently there's one big ulcer there lying on my throat! No wonder so pain wth? My friend who also did the operation said she could talk very soon after the extraction and she didn't even take pain killer! Look at me! Taken countless of Brufen still can feel the pain.
The ulcer was the size of my thumb finger nail. Dentist also said: 'expected you got an ulcer,but so big ,must be very pain! '
She then explained that during suture she sort of pull the tissue towards my wound to cover it (so that no food will be trapped). And my wound is quite deep so....while it can cover the wound,tissue on the other sides was being torn off and formed ulcer. Gosh , plus after surgery didn't drink enough water,so turned out to be a super big ulcer..she immediately help me to apply medicine to alleviate the pain
She then advised me not to eat red dates!lol exactly what i ate,RED DATES!*face palm
Now that the reason is pinpointed, must do something to save myself: gargle with salt water ,drink herbal tea , apply medicine. (it's not easy ,very dark there inside the throat and it lies very deep inside )!
Now I feel better! Wisdom tooth extraction had been very hard to me seriously.
For one whole week I didn't take any rice! I miss rice,hot soup and spicy sour dishes! When can i have them?
My food:
Day 8-Saturday
KFC Mashed potato!tasty as always!
