Special Care Resources
Unflavoured non-foaming toothpaste
This can be useful for patients for are very sensory who cannot tolerate the flavour or texture of other toothpastes. Examples include Oranurse which can be brought for pharmacies or online.
Fingerguards
These are shields worn to help protect your fingers when brushing somebody else’s teeth. They also stop your child biting down on the toothbrush. They can be used multiple times and are available to buy online.
Specialist toothbrushes
Toothbrushes such as Dr Barman’s are made to brush three surfaces of the teeth at once. This is helpful when brushing somebody else’s teeth and can make it easier to work around the tongue.
