I went for another cleaning, and since there was a note in my file about asking this question, I discussed it further with the hygienist. She hadn't heard about it either, but we made a small change and I rinsed about twice as often during the pumice-polishing step, just in case it was an ingestion issue (mild fluoride poisoning? aspartame?). Also, I took two ibuprofen an hour beforehand. One of those two things solved my problem.
