It has been seen that long tailed macaque monkeys clean their teeth with floss like the human beings do. These monkeys use twigs and plant fibres to floss their teeth. A mother macaque monkey teaches her young ones to floss their teeth as soon as they are one year old. The mother macaque sits face to face with her infant baby, pulls the twig or plant fibre back and forth between her teeth several times until she is satisfied that the young one has learnt the art to floss the teeth.
Macaque monkeys living near a Buddhist shrine in Lopburi, Thailand use human hair to floss their teeth. They pluck the hair of devotees who visit the shrine. The devotees do not mind the monkeys pulling out their hair as they look upon them as divine servants.
