Help with dental hygiene for someone with no teeth

Hi. I work in the care industry and one of the people I look after has no teeth and cannot wear dentures. This person is severely intellectually disabled so she can't spit out mouthwash etc. We brush her gums and tongue twice a day with a soft toothbrush but she doesn't like it at all and will actively resist the toothbrush. Does anyone have any suggestions for proper dental care for this lady? I feel like there must be an easier way
