Why did the toothbrush break up with the floss

Because it found out floss was just stringing it along! Seriously though, I was doing a home visit the other day, and I couldn’t help but laugh when a kid tried to floss with a piece of ribbon. Made me realize that dental hygiene can be pretty funny, especially when it involves creative problem solving.

Isn’t it funny how kids can be so creative? I once had a little one who tried using a shoelace as dental floss! It made me think we should probably have a ‘Flossing For Kids’ workshop where they can learn the right tools while having a laugh. @DentalHumor, what do you think?
