Floss picks. Flossing is actually more important than brushing and it's really nice to have a pack of floss picks at your desk so you can floss absent mindedly while watching a video or even in bed.

It's so much wasted plastic though. I 3D printed a handle and with a little sandpaper to smooth the handle out, it's super easy to floss. Using this one currently: https://www.printables.com/model/267704-dental-floss-holder-with-tensioner/comments

Awesome! Thank you so much, I have floss picks that I hate as they're crappy and break or stretch out before I can do my whole mouth so I end up using two. Definitely printing this when I get home!

Glad you like it. Maybe snap the ends off as threading the floss through the holes is a pita haha.
