2nd Visit to the Dentist

I finally had my second wisdom tooth extracted on the 6th, last wednesday. Dr. Shaifulizan (Maxillofacial & Oral Surgery) of the School of Dental Sciences, USM, carried out the operation. This time it took slightly longer (about 20 minutes) as it was deeper.

I had wanted to take some pics but forgot to bring the camera. Maybe it was for the best as it would have grossed out a lot of visitors to my blog. I hope that it I won't have to visit the dentist for a long long time. It's healing well but I am still chewing on the right side.

The School of Medical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) is one of the leading Medical Schools in Malaysia. It was established in 1979 and is situated in Kubang Kerian, Kelantan.

My dad has been working there for nearly 10 years now. He was complaining that there were no takers for post graduate studies in his field, Pathology. Considered boring by many medical students because it involves mostly laboratory work and peering into microscopes. Anybody interested?
