Gums Story....

Last night went home coz today had to go to visit the dentist. Kinda missed my bed although only slept in hostel for 1 night....:p
So this morning about 11am, went to visit Dr Goh because my gums are hurting so much !!! *sobz* Can't remember when the pain actually started....but it's all because my upper 2 front teeth has a slight gap between. Couldn't eat properly.... have been eating porridge and softer food these few days.
Anyway, Dr Goh said that i got gum infection. The gap between my teeth caused more plague deposit and it stimulated growth of gum. So which means, i have gum over-growth. It's swollen and red. but not serious until nid anti-biotics. He numbed my gums and did some cleaning. And it still hurt !!!! wonder if there was any numbing- effect at all.
The worst thing he actually said that if the swelling didn't subside and my gums were still over- grown, then i have to go back to him and cut off the over grown gums. Totally disgusted. I can't imagine the pain that i would have to go through. And definitely a good idea to close up the gap in front in case anything else happens again. so it means braces ..... Adelene and Carolyn had their turn at braces and now it will be my turn soon.... Seems like my generation can't escape braces !!! LoL
All i hope now is that the swelling will go off and that i wouldn't have to go thru the cutting of gums which is freaking me out!!! Please keep me in ur prayers !! =)
