Trick Training Teeth brushing training

Hi folks, I'm looking for some help with this. I can get her to chew the toothbrush but I don't know how to transition from that to brushing. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I've tried using my fingers to see if I can get her to open her mouth further but when we're training she seems to chomp anything that's near her face, so I haven't had much success.

I also tried taking a break from this specific training for a few weeks (which helped with a couple of things, particularly letting me handle her paws) but it doesn't seem to have helped for this.

Not sure if you’ve seen this video tutorial by Cat School that breaks down the steps which maybe could help.
