I went to the dentist this morning because I was having some tooth sore last few days. Thinking that it might be inflamed gums or trapped food in the gums, I decided to get a dentist check on it to be safe.
My appointment was scheduled at 9:30am, I arrived at 9:45am and I was late because I could not find where the clinic was. Was my first time there, this dentist is recommended by my friend. Arriving there late, the 10 o’clock patient have arrived and the doctor was attending to her. She was there for about an hour or more and the 10:30am appointment has arrived too. So I decided to tell the nurse that I will go pay my bills and have my breakfast and return later.
Returning at 11:45am, there were more patients! Gosh! How many did I have to wait just to get my teeth clean? Well, guess that is the result of it for me being late.
Finally at 12:20pm, I get to see the dentist, a young looking and friendly dentist. He taught me a few things today. Like why do we need to use a medium or hard toothbrush if the plagues are soft? Why do you need to brush so hard if the plagues are soft and easily removed? Well, you see because I use a medium toothbrush and it caught me that I do brush hard sometimes; telling me that will only hurt the gums. Just because we want our teeth to be clean doesn’t mean we need to torture our gums. He does have a point (well from a dentist lol)! Not just that, he told me that we should not use any alcohol substance mouth wash because it will make the enamel on our teeth weak. I never knew mouth wash has alcohol substance in them.
So the dentist checked my teeth and he said “Your teeth are perfectly fine, except for some stains at the back (that can’t be remove mind you), a small filling at the side, you do not need any scaling or cleaning by me at all.” Lol? I was surprised! The first dentist that tells me that! He did tell me that my front teeth are slightly in danger claiming that it is sharper than normal teeth (I don’t know how to explain this, but like erm… normal tooth are rounded at the sides, but my are sharp and two tooth side by side is getting even at the bottom). I suspect it may have been me grinding my teeth when I sleep in which my previous dentist told me of (not like I know I grind my teeth, then hit me that when I was studying part-time, I had a few nights that I got awoken up by my own teeth grinding. So I guess it was that. Lol). He keeps thinking that I chew with my front teeth. I told him I don’t, I chew on my right mostly. So I told him it might be the teeth grinding when I am stress two years back. He advised me to go for stress management lol. I suggested an easier method! EXERCISING!
Well, so it means I waited form 10:00am to 12:30pm to see him and have him tell me my teeth are perfectly fine and getting some tips off him. I got charge RM20 for consultation fees.
Leaving the dentist I went to Guardian and purchased an alcohol-free mouthwash by Oral-B. Came home and threw my Listerine away that I haven’t use for some time lol because I hated it that it is burning in the mouth and before I could not even finish 30 seconds gargling, I expel it. Guess it was the alcohol that did it! Learnt something new today! Next change, my medium toothbrush to soft bristle toothbrush!
Three basic steps to maintaining a healthy set of teeth;
Step one, brushing; remember not to brush too hard until you bleed. That means it isn’t good.
Step two, flossing; is to remove any plague or trapped food between the teeth.
Step three, rinsing; using alcohol-free mouthwash will do the trick. The rest just burns because of the alcohol substance.
Have you done all the three basic steps today for your teeth?

Lotsa Lava was creamish sourish and Alabama Sweet Smoothie was very peanutty sweet. I love the peanut butter taste in the smoothie but it was far too sweet for me.
This time, eating just this was filling!
Thinking the cup might be too little for her, she ordered the bowl and she couldn’t finish it in the end. I did not try this as I was afraid I might be allergic to it. I don’t know what kind of clams they use, so I didn’t risk it.
It sure is heaven; for a shrimp eater. Shrimps cooked in four different styles. I enjoyed their Chilly Shrimp with their mango lime dip (I think that is what the dip is called lol. That was how it tasted anyway). Their Coconut Shrimp at first bite was yummy, but chewing along it was bland in my opinion. Fried Shrimp tasted like fried chicken but just with shrimp. I didn’t take the Tempura Shrimp, I was too full.
Love the setting of the place! So relaxing.
No it isn’t like our “Bak Kut Teh” restaurants here where we have to pour in hot water ourselves. They bring us the tea and refills them up for us. Tealight candle is just to keep the tea warm. A very good idea.
Artistic huh? Not taken by me lol. My fiancé took this picture.
Oh yes I love raw swordfish so much that I have to eat it again. Never get bored of the sweet taste. Yummy~
Can’t resist not ordering raw salmon now can we.
This was delicious. The sauce is very nice and with fresh raw salmon and salads. Yummy.
This was something unique. The mango and salmon blends very well and was refreshingly delicious. Especially since mango is my favorite fruit.
The tamago is delicious and again confirms the passing grade for the chef on this. Though I find the plum rice not too plum-py in taste, but it is a yummy try(something I have not seen in KL before). It would be much nicer if the plum rice has more plum taste in my opinion.
My fiancé ordered this. Together with the noodles are varieties of sushi and sashimi.
They will give you a coupon at the end of the meal with your bill for a complimentary tea or coffee. It can be redeem on the spot. Don’t even have to wait for the next visit.
But it really reminded of those prairie days where they got this look alike swing right at their porch and flowers surrounding the place. Eeeep the thought of it is so sweet!
Heard it used to be a pet store or something (or was it a pet café? Not sure haha). Didn’t get much business so they close down and now it is being used by TCC (I am sure no pet furs were left behind).
I had the Berry Oreo in which I find it quite tasteless. I can’t really taste any Oreo taste, I think the berry taste covered it. My other friend ordered the Ultimate Almond Latte. Ooooh now this was nice; the coffee and the almond taste blends very well and the smell of the almond was really good. Too bad I am not a coffee person. There were 5 of us. My fiancé ordered a Litchi Tea Freeze. Another friend ordered a Soursop Yogurt Drink and shared with his girlfriend. The Litchi and the Soursop was bland (hahah yes I tried everyone’s drink)..jpg){kind=spacer}
Mejajiki Sashimi – Raw Swordfish, is complimentary for the first Sashimi Moriwase ordered. Ooooh I love Mejajiki Sashimi and I regret not ordering enough portion of Sake Sashimi. It was like I forgot all about it..jpg)
I ordered the Tamago to see how the quality is. I was told if we want to know if a Sushi Chef is good, eat the Tamago and if when you bite it, it doesn’t fall apart, then it is good. And of Course my all-time favorite Mejajiki.
I didn’t eat this, cause I don’t take eel like this o.O but my friends order a number of this..jpg)
This was a complimentary dish for the night..jpg)
Yummy! I love this! Though my friend said it is quite tasteless. You know I never knew what the radish was for that always comes with Tempura. I found out from my fiancé sometime ago that it is meant to be in the sauce (what it is called) to bring out the flavor (I think lol. So I forgot exactly what he told me). I had quite a share of this..jpg)
I find this so-so. Somehow the pork was not sweet enough and the garlic wasn’t strong enough. Tasteless in my opinion..jpg)
This would have been nice if it wasn’t all salty honestly. I ate this too during my trip last year, and it was delicious then. Chef for this is in a “ham sap” mood this time? That or salt went down on price..jpg)
This one was quite refreshing to me. After all the raw, grilled, fried and etc; this one was something light and tasted well down the throat..jpg)
Peach was from canned peach I assumed as it was sweet, VERY sweet. The salad was uhm… I don’t recommend this.
Nearing Farm Mart it was uphill; as I was being half dead I decided to push the bicycle up. Getting down from the bicycle my leg was all weak, I couldn’t breathe, my back hurts like mad as though there was something stuck between my shoulder blades. My fiancé then pushed the bicycle for me but I still had trouble moving. He told me to take a rest, but it was so HOT! So with persistent to get to a cooler place, I walked uphill to Farmart and head to AustWine where we would be getting the Brockwurst Sausages.
This is one drink I nearly finish all when it arrived lol. Yes it is cold water... hmmmm refreshing.
Was Calamansi.
Clockwise: Samosa, Onion Rings and Prawn Rolls.
This is my all-time favorite in Austwine. I love it… yummy!
Crispy on the outside, slightly a tad too dry on the inside though. I think they fry the pork knuckle too long. But the taste was delicious.
Vanilla ice cream for my fiancé, Chocolate Chip Peppermint for me. *Slurps*
I think if we could, we would of licked the cup clean lol.
