Difficulty brushing my teeth... help?

[Masao]

Hey guys, so, something really strange has been going on for the past week or so.

Basically, I have become totally unable to use dental floss. I can brush my teeth with a toothbrush, but I just can't use dental floss anymore.

The problem is that as soon as I start using the dental floss, it activates my gag reflex pretty bad (to the point that I have to catch my breath.

The trigger was that my finger would touch my tongue a little bit while doing the dental floss, and that's never been a problem before but recently as soon as I tough my tongue even the slightest bit that gag reflex gets activated.

I kept trying to do it every day in the hopes that it would get better, but it never did.

It got so bad that today that as soon as I approached my teeth with the dental floss, it's like if the trauma set in like pavlov's dogs or something and the gag reflex immediately began just at the mere thought of the dental floss coming.

I don't know what to do anymore, this is a really weird problem

Floss is bad for your gums.
Your body is trying to tell you something.
