I am tasked with flossing 2 clients’ teeth. They have flossing piks. They would not try to hurt me deliberately, but I worry that if I floss their molars, I will have to stick my finger in far enuf into their mouths so that if they accidentally were to bite down, I would get injured.

My agency has never said keep yourself safe, which makes me realize that I must think for myself about all risky tasks. If you are tasked with flossing, how do you do it?
