   My dentist hands me a little bag with floss, toothpaste, and those mint   
   flavored toothpick/flossers. Since I use regular tubes of toothpaste at   
   home, I have a lifetime supply of those .8 ounce tubes. Handy for TSA   
   checkpoints although I hope I never have to deal with those people again.

   I've found those things along trails and other odd places. Who flosses   
   their teeth while hiking. I approach them with caution. The floss caught   
   on a crown and I couldn't pull it out and unlike regular floss you can't   
   pull it through. I don't spend a lot of time plucking my eyebrows and so   
   forth in a mirror so it was with some trepidation I used an X-Acto knife   
   to cut the floss strand without slicing my tongue or lip.
