What can you do if your new partial plate has a metal material on the roof of mouth that causes gag reflex?
Here are a few tips to help you get used to your new partial plate:
* Start by wearing your plate for short periods of time. Gradually increase the amount of time you wear it each day as you become more comfortable.
* Try using a denture adhesive. This can help to keep your plate in place and reduce movement, which can trigger the gag reflex.
* Relax and breathe slowly. When you feel the urge to gag, try to relax and breathe slowly. This will help to reduce the intensity of the reflex.
* Talk to your dentist if the problem persists. If you are still experiencing a severe gag reflex after a few weeks, talk to your dentist. They may be able to make adjustments to your plate or recommend other solutions.
Additional tips:
* Avoid eating foods that are too hot or too cold. This can irritate the roof of your mouth and make the gag reflex worse.
* Eat soft foods at first. This will make it easier to chew and swallow without triggering the gag reflex.
* Drink plenty of fluids. This will help to keep your mouth moist and reduce the likelihood of the gag reflex.
