Why does brushing teeth cause nausea?

In the early days, I always had nausea symptoms when brushing my teeth. Sometimes the situation was so serious that I even vomited gastric juice, and the frequency was quite frequent. What caused this nausea when brushing my teeth? If you experience regurgitation, nausea, or vomiting when brushing your teeth early in the morning, please read the following introduction. Our doctors will mainly analyze the cause and solution of the condition. We hope that these contents will be helpful to you.

1. Some people squeeze too much toothpaste when brushing their teeth. Too much toothpaste will produce a lot of foam after friction in the mouth, which will irritate the throat and cause nausea.

2. Many people use cold water when brushing their teeth regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter. Little do people know that brushing your teeth with cold water is bad for your teeth. On the one hand, brushing your teeth with cold water in cold weather will not soften the bristles of the toothbrush, and if you are not careful when brushing your teeth, it will cause bleeding gums and cause nausea. On the other hand, brushing your teeth with cold water (especially in winter) can stimulate the oral nerves and cause nausea due to the temperature difference between the water and the mouth.

3. Some people suffer from chronic pharyngitis. For this group of people, if medication and lozenges are ineffective and the disease is prone to relapse, they can use some medicinal teas such as Qianmuye throat-clearing and lung-moistening tea for conditioning and treatment, which can greatly improve and help the cure of chronic pharyngitis.

The correct way to brush your teeth

1. When brushing your teeth, do not squeeze too much toothpaste. Generally, it can be determined according to the toothbrush you use. If the toothbrush has more bristles, toothpaste can occupy 1/3; if the toothbrush has fewer bristles, toothpaste can occupy 1/2. This will not only avoid waste, but also avoid discomfort during brushing. Consider using a children's toothbrush.

2. When brushing your teeth in spring, autumn and winter (especially winter), you can use warm water at 30 to 40 degrees Celsius (depending on your own comfort level), put the toothbrush in it first, wait until the bristles become soft, then squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste and start brushing your teeth. This will not cause bleeding gums, and you won't feel nauseous when rinsing your mouth with warm water.

3. When brushing your teeth, try to breathe out through your nostrils instead of your mouth.

4. For those suffering from chronic pharyngitis, in addition to brushing your teeth according to the above method, you should also take medication in time and try to smoke less or not smoke at all.
