Hello lovely forum people, I feel like I'm just popping up asking questions and disappearing again and haven't had much time to see what's going on with the rest of you. Sorry about that, it's all been a bit intense recently.
My question for today is, do you have any tips/tricks to get your PwD to clean their teeth? Or, is there some miracle mouth wash that's swallowable? Dad will "clean his teeth" when instructed, but he just passes the toothbrush over his front teeth a couple of times. When you suggest he do the back ones he does it but starts chewing on the toothbrush, bless him. We can't do it for him or he will get aggressive.
Any advice gratefully received (as ever!).
