My first visit to a dentist… yawww…
February 18th, 2007 by ihsan8all through the night I lay awake with a terrible toothache. aspirins provided some relief but the pain returned when the effects of the medicine wore off. This bad tooth should have been pulled out long ago, but I kept on postponing my visit to the dentist. I have not been to the dentist before coz the terrible fear of dentists that I have been heard from naughty friends.. hahaha… kenak saim pong!….
when morning finally came, I sighed with relief. it had been a long painful night. the hurt of my tooth had given me a headache. so, I stated in my mind to go to the dentist that morning, forgetting all the terrible fear of dentists….
I arrived early at the dental surgery. however there were other still earlier than me. there was a registering counter near the entrance door. after registering my name with the receptionist I sat down on one of the chairs in the waiting room….. there were newspaper n magazines available for reading. music was played through two gigantic loudspeakers in the waiting room. There were my favourite songs but they didn’t sound good at all… then the pain returned with the greater intensity again. never in my life I had feel this bad before. I wished that my turn would come soon.
For about 3 minutes I waited impatiently in my seat, I hardly heard someone calling my name from a small door near my seat… awww….. then I got up n staggered into the surgery. A huge man in white uniform and white face-mask greeted me. He asked what was wrong… nah I said a few words while my eyes looked around the room. I saw the drilling apparatus, the “spanar” n the other torture devices. Then he directed me onto a large chair, I lay down with my heart beating profusely (dup-dak dup-dak jantum ai meh2 nk mati tiko tu) while my legs wanted to run out! Wakakakakakakaka….
“Relax n open ur mouth” the dentist said with a soft gentle voice… hahaha (daku gulim2 suko slok atah katil)…. I obeyed instantly. His voice calmed me, I felt more relaxed. Then he peered into my mouth. I closed my eyes n prepared for the worst! A few minutes later I felt there was a swollen in my mouth but it was not. When the dentist pulled my tooth out, it was not hurt. Then magically the toothache, headache n the wild beating of the heart had gone, awwww…. I felt very happy….
“Hoh, it’s over now, I have pulled the bad tooth”, said the dentist. I could hardly believe what I heard. My bad tooth was extracted n I didn’t feel it at all! What a fantastic man this dentist was.. then I got up from my seat n looked at the smiling face of the dentist, like a gay boy… hahaha… he had removed his face-mask. I thanked him even though he warned me not to take more sweets after this… nah, how come? I love chocolate! Who cares?
Outside the surgery I saw a dozen anxious faces waiting for their turn. I smiled at them trying to show the pleasant treatment that I had received. I paid my bill n stepped through the door into the bright sunlit street… auuuuuuwwww…. that’s all.. hahaha… Nah, my first visit to a dentist.. naleng… For now, no more bad tooth…. this is not the time to getting old…. hahahaha…. only 19 years old.. too young! am i? hahah… one of my beloved tooth had gone… hahahaha… gapo la aku bobey…. sapo la ajar aku bobey ni…. sero2 wawa hok ajar…
