How to brush your teeth without throwing up? I guess this is kind of gross.?

Years ago, my sister told me that her son couldn't brush his teeth without throwing up. Maybe just power of suggestion, but now I can't either. I dread it every day. How do I overcome the power? Usually, I try to think about something else, but it just doesn't work any more. I hope some of you can offer suggestions.

Answer:
Stand up straight and consciously take deep breaths through your nose. Don't spend much time putting your head down to spit the rinse. Brush gently but quickly.

It's weird but I have the same thing on certain mornings. Oh yea, and don't spend much time brushing teeth at the back of the mouth. Use a mouth wash to get to those areas.
Maybe you should try a different toothpaste? Or try to brush slowly or quickly and not go too far back. Try drinking a glass of really cold water. Don't focus too much on the teeth in the back of your mouth. Use floss and mouthwash for them.

You should probably talk to your dentist about it.
Wow, I've never had that problem. Maybe try not brushing too far back in your mouth?
I would suggest a glass of very cold water before trying to brush. Perhaps that will be enough to sort of numb the back of your throat enough and to suppress your gag reflex. Some says gargling with mouthwash prior to brushing can have the same effect. it will be interesting to see if anyone else has any ideas. Good luck.
why are you throwing up. is it the nauseatin smell from the toothpaste or are you brushin too far into the back of your throat. try switchin toothpaste and dont touch the back of your throat
I have the same problem. I have a very sensitive gag reflex. I will brush my teeth with my head forward. that seems to help though i can still gag when i brush the back ones.
wow. well brush your teeth with your head forward.
