Have much does that cost to get a dentist to make a special mouth stick. I
have wanted to get one to use in bed. My OT through VNA in Lawrence tried to
make one but it hurt my mouth. Does the OT have to provide a special kit
for the dentist to use?

Naomi,
If you have any mobility in your hands, I would use the mouse stick as a last
resort. Maybe someone else on here and suggest where you might be able to get
ideas for adaptive technology. Here in Florida, you could contact the FAAST,
but I am unsure where to direct you in your area.
