Our hygienist has highlighted to me that my husband is not cleaning his teeth thoroughly enough. She advises that I clean his teeth. He has all his own teeth and can/used to use an electric toothbrush or a manual one. It’s not easy to clean someone’s teeth when they don’t want it done, and are in denial that they have any memory/health issues. Any tips.?
Thank you.
