Wooden toothpicks are small, slender sticks made from wood, primarily used for cleaning between teeth or for various other purposes.37
Material: Wooden toothpicks are typically made from softwood, such as birch, which is known for its smooth and splinter-free qualities. The wood is chosen for its suitability for oral use.
Size and Shape: Toothpicks are small and thin, with a length ranging from about 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 centimeters). They are designed to be slender enough to fit comfortably between teeth without causing damage.
Pointed Ends: One or both ends of the toothpick are pointed, facilitating easy insertion between teeth for cleaning purposes. The pointed ends are often tapered to reduce the risk of injury.
Round Profile: Toothpicks may have a round profile.
Smooth Surface: The surface of wooden toothpicks is typically smooth to prevent splinters or rough edges that could cause discomfort or injury.
Disposable: Wooden toothpicks are usually intended for single-use and are disposable. After use, they are discarded, promoting hygiene and preventing the spread of bacteria.
Multi-Purpose Use: Besides oral care, wooden toothpicks can be used for various other purposes, such as crafting, cooking, or serving appetizers.
