I would think it would be unsanitary to use the same piece of floss that 306 other people also used. And if I were the photographer I would have chosen a pretty girl with white teeth for the main subject not this mouthful of plaque.
Tony, I thought about what you said about toothpaste, but you are forgetting 2 qualities about toothpaste that are benificial. First is the flouride which "supposedly" strengthens your teeth, believe who you want. But also remember that toothpaste is basic (ie. higher pH than water) and therefore prevents tooth decay. And I forgot to mention that minty fresh feeling you get when you kiss your super-model girlfriend.
Also, I too hate flossing, mostly because I did not do it enough when I was young. But I think it is benificial and gets places no toothbrush can reach (even your's Tony.) But if you don't believe me, floss (i know, i know) after you brush and tell me you did not find anything in there.
I tried brushing my teeth with no tootpaste last night, and it felt kind of wierd. I have done it before but forgoten what it was like. With my toothbrush though it does not matter if you use paste or not. I use a Sonicare autobrush that purportedly removes biological infestations by humming at the resonant frequency of the cilia that the buggers use to hold on to my teeth, causing them to let go.
Put that in you pipe and smoke it.
