I've had a nightmare bitting my 5yo. She has hated everything we have put her in so far pretty much. All normal checks done and no issues fine.
She tosses her head around and opens her mouth which is the main issue.
Anyway I've finally found something she was happy ish in. She was settled and comfortable and started to reach into the contact for the first time ever. This lasted a few weeks and it has started rubbing the corners of her lips. They are not sore (I think!) but are like dry chapped flakey skin. She has started head tossing again although not to the extent that she was previously.
Size wise I can't go bigger as it's far too big. She's in a 4.75, 5" slides about and 4.5 is tiny.
Will bit guards help or just make the rubbing worse if there's even less space?
I'm running out of bit options and my instructor is suggesting a flash now as it seems to be habit.
Is it cruel to keep persevering with this bit? It cost £90 which makes it even more annoying!
