Have you considered a muzzle, like the one at http://www.madame-s.com/HT013.html ? I own the version with the padded mouthpiece. One reason why I strongly recommend it is because nothing goes inside the mouth. (And to me, that guarantees no chance of a gag reflex.) Instead, the harness holds the mouth firmly closed, while pressing a padded piece of leather against the mouth. (The analogy I use is: Imagine a really strong person holding his leather-gloved hand over your mouth.) Also regarding safety (something you always have to think about, with gags), it is possible to breathe through the mouth, if needed. It's a bit difficult (I have to "smile", so to speak, to breathe.) but it is possible, so even if something should happen to stop up your nose, you're still good.
