I'm glad this got posted, my dentist gave me a bag in 97, I can usually afford to see him once every two years now, "need more straws?" "nah, still have plenty"  I just might get a bag next time.  So Prentke Romich makes 1000% profit, at least, on the straws. I'm not gonna judge but there might be an especially warm room in a hot place for health/drug industry fat cats!
Blessings,

I use disposable "puff tubes" for my sip and puff wheelchair and for my adaptive keyboard/mouse system. I had been getting them from Prentke Romich who charged $5 for pack of 10. I didn't know who else sold them.

After doing some checking I found that what they call "puff tubes" are what dentist call "Saliva ejectors".

I found Saliva Ejectors at International Dental Supply

Package of 100 for $1.99

They are plastic with a metal rod so you can bend them and they stay in place.

This has always been a good resource for information.  I'm looking for a specific type of sip-and-puff mouthpiece for a sip-and-puff controlled chair.  The mouthpiece's are L-shaped, made of a pretty solid plastic but flexible, and have a "doughnut-shaped" literally made on one end.  Anyone know where on the Internet I might find these?  Still have a Sicare if anyone is interested.
