Finally got some luck to see the dentist today at the Emergency department of the Dental Hospital. My wisdom tooth is aching for the umpteenth time, and I thought I might as well take advantage of the free dental service in UK (the last time I paid $800 to get rid of 2!!!)

Had an xray and examination done and was told that I've got an infection. The dentists think my poor tooth isn't gonna grow out because it's obstructed by a molar, and hence, I'll probably go on to have uncountable more episodes of such toothache. Mind you, it hurts quite badly, and my neck is slightly swollen on one side. Didn't realise it until my boy commented. And now my neck is hurting plus I'm having a sore throat...all thanks to the tooth.

Will be awaiting an appointment to get the extraction done. And I'll be removing 2 again!!!! Argh...I'm wondering if they'll do a good job. I have heard people telling me how swollen one side of their face got after the surgery, and I definitely don't wanna end up swelling for a few days....not when it's so near to Xmas time when I'll probably have it done (why?!?!?!?! of all times!?!?!??!?!)
