Exactly, catalyst2, that's why the dam is the thing I most dislike about dentist visits (other than needles!) When my dentist took out my wisdom tooth on the top right side, he gave me a palate relaxant and I felt as if something was covering my esophagus and windpipe. Needless to say, when he pulled the one on the other side a few days later, he just gave me extra freezing instead. :D
I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I was able to brush my teeth successfully without any hint of swallowing my toothbrush!
