“Dentist also need to be on call?”
That’s probably the question I got most during my surgical posting.
We had the opportunity to tag along and learn from the dedicated team of Oral Maxillofacial Surgeons and Dental surgeons at the hospital for the past month, and it has been one of the best learning journey that I wish could’ve been longer.
Assisting and observing how they treat patients who are different from what we usually see in our clinic, really makes me think that they deserve more credit.
And why does dental surgeons need to be on call?
When someone got into a car accident at 2am and got their face badly injured (facial bone fracture/teeth broken off/big cut on the lips or tongue etc), the dental team have to come in to manage immediately.
The specialists also carry out surgeries for oral cancer patient, where major surgeries can go up to 10 hours...and that’s considered short. Sometimes it can go up to 6am next day!
A lot of people don’t seem to know that being a dentist/dental surgeon means that we have to provide comprehensive care to not just the teeth, but the entire oral and facial structures, and most importantly the overall well being of the patient. That includes their mental health, and their ability to carry out daily function at the optimum quality with minimal discomfort.
Of course, what I’ve learned and shared is just the tip of the iceberg. There are so much more to explore in this amazing field, and this is a simple sharing to the general public on what is going on in a dental surgeon’s life. I am still relatively new and have a lot to learn, but if you want to know more about the life of a specialist in the Oral Surgery department, feel free to check out Dr. @firdaus_hariri ! (He’s one of the people who inspired me in my journey in dentistry!)😁

今天為大家介紹作品No.5的主角 : 黑馬哥

[黑馬哥] 的故事:
在2015年10月凌晨,警員發現一隻黑色唐狗嚴重受傷躺臥在路旁,送往相關部門,檢視晶片得悉為本中心之TNR計劃的流浪動物,立即通知隊長跟進。
隊長知悉後趕往了解,醫生表示黑馬哥精神尚可,後雙腿骨骨折,盤骨鬆脫,幸膀肛沒有嚴重受傷,現留院觀察中,盡快安排手術。從骨折的位置及傷勢,判斷是由硬物重擊令雙腳一同折斷。當時他只有一歲,但他勇敢的眼神告訴我們,他會努力撐住,不會放棄!
隊長立刻安排黑馬哥進行骨科手術,沒料到這他在第一次手術上,遇上了對麻醉藥敏感,幸好經搶救後拾回性命。及後為減低手術風險,不可同時進行兩隻腳的接接駁手術,免身體失去支撐點而難於康復或再次受傷,故治療期需分段進行。
在第二次手術後,因為他自己強行要站立,而引致骨釘與骨板鬆脫,需要再進行手術取出,幸好第三次手術很成功,幾經波折腳患才穩定下來。
經歷了一個月治療,黑馬哥在最後一次接駁手術後,不足24小時就堅強不屈地站起來,令隊長及基地團隊感動得要流淚了,基地團隊非常感激所有幫忙的醫生令黑馬哥的生命不再一樣。黑馬哥在2015年11月加入志永基地大家庭,等待領養至今。
如你不愛,也請你不要傷害!

In a mid-night in October 2015, a severely injured dog was found lying on the pavement by the police. It was immediately sent to the authority and Captain Chi Wing was informed by the authority after confirming the microchip details. This injured dog, Black Pony, was under Captain’s Trap, Neuter and Return Programme (“TNR”).
Captain took Black Pony to the clinic for treatment. The vet opined that Black Pony suffered from fractured hind legs, pelvic displacement and urinary bladder. In view of his injuries, the vet commented that Black Pony’s injuries were inflicted by human beings. One could see from this one year-old Black Pony’s eyes that he would survive at all costs.
Unfortunately, Black Pony suffered from allergies to anesthesia during surgery. He was saved once again by the vet after resuscitation. To minimise the risk, the vet operated his 2 legs separately.
Less than 24 hours after his second surgery, the stubborn but strong Black Pony stood on his 4 paws to show his progress and unbendable nature. The bone fracture plate and tibia nail were loosened. Black Pony could finally walk on his 4 paws after the third surgery.
After more than a month, Black Pony could walk by himself again. Even though there were a number of follow up surgeries to be operated on this little boy, all members of Dogbase were so glad to see him recovered.
We would like to express our gratitude towards, Dr. Tiong Hai Hean, Dr. Chueh Ti Jen and the lovely vet assistants for saving Black Pony’s life.
Black Pony joined our Chi Wing DogBase family in November 2015 and he is available for adoption.
