Severe gag reflex is extremely difficult to manage, especially in children. The uncontrollable spasms of the throat and muscles in the mouth can make it very difficult to keep anything down, let alone receive dental treatment. For children with severe gag reflexes, going to the dentist can be a nightmare. Thankfully, there are ways to ease their anxiety and make the experience more bearable. With a little bit of patience and understanding, children with severe gag reflexes can still get the dental care they need.
