Where can i get a palate-less impression tray to reduce gagging?

Digital impression: Some dentists can take digital impressions of your teeth using a camera instead of using a tray.

Lower tray: Have the dentist try in and use a lower tray for the upper impression. I do it all the time. Since they are plastic, occasionally i may need to warm it, bend it a little, chill it and I have a workable tray.
