On wednesday, I went to the National Dental Centre to have a check on my teeth whether I could go to the operation for my protruding lower jaw.

I experienced my first X-ray on my teeth and it was quite cool but I could not open my eyes during the process of the X-ray. After which, the dentist talked to me and my mother about the X-ray.

It was really cool to see the structure of my teeth being taken on X-ray and the dentist said that I have four wisdom teeth growing out already. I am so surprised as i thought that only adults have.

My mother decided that I should be on the waiting list and wait for three years for the braces and surgery as the braces would be subsidised by then. And the dentist had said that the surgery could only be operate after 18 years old as if I do it now, my lower jaw may grow out again and I would have to do two surgeries, which is not worth it.
