Interesting...
I personally use a water pick instead of flossing and my dentist says that it does about the same job of removing plaque/preventing tartar without tearing the fuck out of my gums.
I started oil pulling for shits and giggles. It has replaced my flossing and it's just way easier to swish around the mouth for 5 minutes while multi tasking, then spend a minute or two hunting fibers or plaque between teeth.
And I carry a handful of these in my wallet, plus a bottle of mouthwash in my cars arm console.
I rarely use the floss on them, just the softer plastic picks to get stuck food out. Seems to work pretty good as a routine.
What is oil pulling?
Edit: nm, I just read about it. Coconut or Sesame Oil?
