Toothy news
Feb. 10th, 2006 12:01 pmWell, I am impressed with the Royal Berkshire and Battle Hospital. Not only is it within walking distance of my house, but it is very easily navigatable, its corridors are clean and nicely decorated, what I saw of its facilities were good; I arrived early for my appointment (9.40ish, my appointment was at 10.10) so was set for a long wait, but lo! at 9.45 did a voice issue from the desk calling my name, and I was in and out before 10am! Verily I am pleased.
Basically, he had a look at my wisdom teeth - obviously the one with the huge cavity of doom has to come out, but my dentist though the bottom left one would too. The orthodontist looked at them and said "ah what the hell, we'll take out all four". He then gave me the choice of having them taken out under local anaesthetic, or having a general and having them taken out in a proper operation. I have opted for the general anaesthetic, as he started talking about nasty things like cutting gums to get the teeth out etc and I really would rather not to be awake and aware of it.
So there we go, now I'm just waiting for the letter in the post, to tell me when the operation is. I've been referred to the hospital in Newbury, because the waiting list there is shorter. It means Jamie will have to take me there and back, but I'll only be there half a day.
Its all good.
