The desensitisation for teethbrushing is particularly helpful as there's not much information about for this sort of problem. Some ideas are:

  • Use vibrating toothbrush
  • Count teeth using toothbrush or long food item
  • Make music by tapping food in between upper and lower teeth
  • Put vibrating toy on cheek
