--------------------------
year-end coming...
so every1 is talking about utilizing the dental claims...
as for me... phobia again
i scare of nothing but dental visitation can make me trembling
huh.. heard of those drilling sound coming out from those rooms, scary man!
so my appointment is around 10:30am at Toa Payoh
Q & M dental surgery
wake-up early n here is it..
waiting anxiously for my turn
after some conversation with the dentist, she mention to me about my wisdom teeth
doc - got 2 wisdom teeths
kok - oh.. so far the wisdom teeths didn't gimme any problems leh
doc - sooner or later, u'll need to take it out
kok - har, extraction?
(damn.. i think of those scary wisdom teeth extraction like my ex-colleagues done in hospital something, need to recuperate, argh... cannot run away)
doc - yep, still okay at the moment but wisdom teeth hard to maintain
doc - i notice got a bit of decay
doc - gum ok, not much plague
kok - ouh... the wisdom teeth decay, can do the cavity filling?
doc - can.. i'll do one for u today but as i mention before, wisdom teeth is hard to maintain n need to extract, ok?
kok - err.. ok
....
....
after suffering almost 35 minutes of simple cavity filling n cleaning n washing, am out..
a while, my turn to pay the bills
doc - nets or cash?
kok - nets
doc - $110
kok - har, how much?
doc - $110. $40 for filling, $70 for cleaning n washing
kok - u mention i need to strenghten my gum something, got any stuff to... ?
doc - oh.. no need, healthy but when u brush yr teeth, remember to brush not just the teeth.. remember to brush the gum also
doc - this to prevent the plague n tartar build-up, ok
