Why do I feel nauseous and vomit when brushing my teeth?

In daily life, many people experience nausea and vomiting when brushing their teeth in the morning, which makes people feel very uncomfortable. So what exactly causes people to feel nauseous and vomit when brushing their teeth? In fact, there are 6 reasons for this. The first reason is that too much toothpaste is used.

1. Too much toothpaste. Some people like to squeeze out too much toothpaste when brushing their teeth. The friction agent in the toothpaste will produce a lot of foam after friction in the mouth, which will irritate the throat and cause nausea. In addition, most toothpastes are added with some other special ingredients, which have the effect of inducing vomiting and preventing aspiration.

2. Improper toothbrush selection: A toothbrush with a larger brush head can easily irritate the mouth and throat and cause nausea when brushing your teeth. It is recommended to use a health toothbrush with a smaller brush head. Female friends with smaller mouths can consider using a children's toothbrush.

3. Improper choice of toothpaste. Some medicated toothpastes have a strong taste and are very irritating, which can easily cause nausea and vomiting. You should choose a mild toothpaste that you are comfortable with.

4. Incorrect brushing method. Many people brush their teeth carelessly or randomly in a hurry, which will naturally cause nausea. Master the correct brushing method and brush your teeth in a certain order.

5. Cold water stimulation: Brushing your teeth with cold water in winter will cause a large temperature difference between inside and outside of the mouth, which will stimulate the laryngeal nerves and cause nausea. When brushing your teeth in winter, you can add some warm water to reduce the temperature difference, soften the bristles of the toothbrush and reduce irritation.

6. Brush the tongue coating. Many people have the habit of brushing their tongue coating while brushing their teeth. This habit can easily irritate the mouth and cause nausea. If you experience symptoms of nausea and vomiting when brushing your teeth, you can check the above reasons to see if you have the above problems. If so, you should pay attention to correct them in time. Some people experience nausea and vomiting when brushing their teeth because they suffer from chronic pharyngitis. They should see a doctor in time to avoid worsening of the condition.
