Same here! The whole time I gag. Sometimes even throw up. I have not found a solution, kid toothpaste makes me sick too. So i hurry thru it as fast as i can and then i have to eat crackers or toast or something after to get the taste out

I use a very small amount of toothpaste so it doesn't foam too much. I have the water running and my mouth open over the sink so all the extra spit can just drip out. Tmi sorry but that's what helps me
