byers to my molar

Early last month when I finally had my annoying left lower molar removed. It's been bothering me for almost a month before I decided to have a go and visit a local dentist here in Hong Kong. I had my wisdom tooth beside that molar extracted when I went home for vacation last year and was told by my dentist in the Philippines that I must prepare myself because the molar beside my 'late' wisdom tooth will give me trouble soon. I'm not very keen in having my tooth removal here because of work hazzards and I was told that they do things differently here...that you can actually feel the first injection of anesthesia...waaaaaaaa!!!!! But the tooth ache won over my fear (and my regular intake of pain reliever that I despised so much) so I called the nearby local dentist, Dr. Yeung Chi Ho, for an appointment. After two x-rays, the able doctor did perform things just like my dentist in the Philippines and I haven't even felt any pain or discomfort during the operation but just the usual pressure especially because he was having hard time that moment due to my 'firm' molar. The operation lasted for nearly one hour and I paid HK$890 (around Php5,000) including the two x-rays. After two days I'm back to my usual self but less of an annoying once sturdy molar, hehehe!
