How To Get Rid Of Gag Reflex?

Male 55yo have a severe gaging reflex. No relevant medical history, just Crestor for hypercholesterol.
My dentist prescribe me Navodixine tabs as antihemetic for premedication 1 h before the appointment.
He advises me do not drive before and 2h after the appointment.
Thank you Dr.

hi
this is a condition where in you are very sensitive to any sort of touch or handling of your tongue.
there is no reason why some one has this but i would suggest you to use numbing sprays before any procedure of dental treatment so that it goes on smoothly.
