My hubby uses Efferdent tablets. Instead of him having to tear off one each time he needs it, I cut all the sheets of tablets so there's only one in each section. I keep them in the box and only put what is needed for a week or so in a container and place it on the counter beside the toothbrush holder. Much less messy.
Yes, I've been doing this for a few years & it's so much easier! I have coffee "tins" (plastic now of course!) that I put them in, about a months worth.
This is esp' nice for those with arthritis, too. Also, keep in mind these handy little gems are great for keeping your toilet clean!!
