What is a Severe Gag Reflex?
A severe gag reflex can make it uncomfortable or difficult to obtain dental treatment. You may be embarrassed to come in for care because you’re afraid that you’re going to start gagging. We are accustomed to working with patients who have a sensitive gag reflex and are able to make their appointments much more comfortable. With the help of either sedation or working slowly to provide care, we can make your visit with us enjoyable.

Some people have more sensitive gag reflexes than others. Some of this has to do with genetics and hereditary traits and others are simply unique to the individual. Oftentimes, a severe gag reflex starts in childhood and can extend well into adulthood. A sensitive gag reflex can go away over time, but it could be permanent.

What can be done to treat or alleviate a Severe Gag Reflex?
Our goal is to provide you with dental care that is comfortable and enjoyable. Sedation can often make your visits with us more bearable because your gag flex isn’t as sensitive. Sedation can involve either full or partial sleep, which you will get to choose prior to the actual treatment being administered. We will take our time with the procedures so that you have time to compose yourself if you feel like you’re going to throw up.
