[quote=Anonymous]So normally I'm not a big fan of ABA, but discrete trial can be super helpful for stuff like this. He CAN learn to do it and tolerate it, you just need a plan and to go slowly. It's great to have a professional work on this. Do you have access to an OT who understand behavioral principals? Or an ABA therapist/clinic? I don't know if this video will help or not. She's basically desensitizing him to the tooth brush by distracting him with the video and proceeding with the brushing in quick bursts. I would assume over time you can brush longer and longer as the child gets use to it. http://abanashville.com/wp/2014/10/tooth-brushing-desensitization-part-2/[/quote]
