I can only suggest contacting all dentists in the area in the hope that one will agree to visit.

Does anyone have tips on how to brush a PWD's teeth when they decline to open their mouth?

I'm dreading this. I think it may be my line in the sand. I can do bum wiping, vomit etc., but teeth I cannot do! No problem cleaning my dogs' teeth, but the idea of doing Mum's turns my stomach.
