Elimination of hypersensitive gagging reaction to dentistry by propofol at subhypnotic doses.

Abstract
We describe a 44-year-old male patient with severe gagging reaction successfully treated without sedative effect by a continuous infusion of propofol. Propofol at subhypnotic doses seemed to be effective in eliminating hypersensitive gagging reaction to dentistry.
