Probably tellin my age here? (I bet Ole Geauxt knows what it is, too.) Anyway, 20 MTB is found in the laundry detergent section of the grocery store. A lot of folks still add it to their washing detergent to wash their clothes. It comes in a regular detergent box. It's just borax. (Mix some of this borax with grape jelly and it's also a great insecticide to get rid of pi$$ ants when they invade your house.) "20 Mule Team" is just the brand name. Back in the 50's, 20 Mule Team Borax sponsored one of those tv western shows called "Tales of Wells Fargo" starring Dale Robertson (Robinson?). I remember it well!

Nothing more that I'm aware of. But, dental tools are wonderful tools to have to clean out those little cracks and crevasses. If you know someone who is a dental assistant or dental hygienist, they have to buy new dental cleaning tools about every year and they throw away the old ones. For taxidermy work, these dental tools are almost indispensable.
