My dental trip
Today is Friday, 12th of October. RA is closed for today. Any plan for today, Erwin? Nope! Boring day….
Before I start drifting away with my complaints, I should start talking about my dental trip. Chin Yong, my colleague told me about the dental benefits that we as employees are entitled to few days ago. So, I decided to go down to the dentist near my block to "use up" my benefit entitlement for this year.
Chin Yong told me that his dentist is "very pretty, can?". Well, mine is pretty, too. [What in the world is happening!? Why be dentist??]. She is in her mid to late 20s. Tall and wear braces.
My dentist gave my teeth some polishing (cost $50), 2 fillings ($50 each) and some "concentrated fluoride" gel ($20). This amounts to $170 ($20 short of my entitlement).
Polishing was okay.
For Fillings, Dentist: "this is a little sensitive, okay?". Erwin thinking "urm, it hurts! well, not much lar…."
For Flouride gel, Dentist: "rinse ur mouth well and u need to wait 1 hour before u can brush ur teeth or eat anything. If there is any excess, u can either spit it out or swallow it." I was then sent out to wait. Feel very uncomfortable with the sweet gelly in my mouth…. Starts swallowing a little and feel more uncomfortable. Then, I walked over to the sink and spit it all out. What a waste of my $20…
But, well… at least I did something on my holiday. Though, it is not something fancy. What a boring long weekend.
