  • First Dental Checkup together

    Hubby and i went for our first dental checkup together at the Rivervale Mall NTUC denticare on a lazy Saturday morning.  My appointment was 9am and his 9.20am.  The dentist in charge for the day is Mr Marcus Yap, riduculously quiet guy.  As you know, my aunt is a dentist so i never had to worry about my teeth since young.  She would make sure she sees me at least once every 6 months and everytime during the session, she never fails to tell me to floss and brush my teeth well, after that she would do a simple demonstration with a set of model kit and a toothbrush and highlight the important areas that needs to be emhaphasized on.  And my aunt is super chatty.  When she is scaling my teeth, she can actually ask me things and expect a reply with my mouth open so wide.  In contrast, Marcus does not talk.  After he finished my lower set, he raised the chair up and waited.  I mean obviously he wanted me to rinse my mouth.  If it was my aunt, she would say, "Ok, you can rinse now."  So this went on for about 3 times before the end of my whole dental treatment.  And at the last round, he raised my chair up and then he proceeded to sit on a stool at a corner.. I mean.. can't he just tell me that i'm done for the day?? faintx.  Ok la.. so i looked at him and he said, "Your teeth looks fine.  If you tooth aches again, maybe we might have to do an x-ray." then he smiled. 

    Hubby was next after me.  His took much longer.. about 25 min.. whereas mine was just 15 min. LOL* Im so happy that he agreed to go to the dentist today.  He is terrified of dentists i think* cause he has shitty teeth.  Hahaha.. Anyway, as expected, the dentist said his gums were not so healthy, and needed him to come back for a second consultation.  NO MORE SWEET STUFF until your gums is healthy again!!

    Heading off to Marche later for lunch with Jing Mei, Guan Hao and Lucas.. Siyi couldn't make it today because she is still at Krabi.  We are celebrating Lucas's birthday today! Happy Birthday~!~! in advance. Then i'll be heading to Sim Lim to get my long-awaited NETBOOK!!! YIPpppeEEeee~!@~!~
