So I was using a toothpick to clean my lower central incisors, until all of a sudden, a piece broke off and got completely stuck between them.
Since the space between my lower central incisors is very tight, with virtually no space between them, I knew I was in trouble.
I tried to get a hold of one side with my fingers, but a small part on the outside broke off and the rest remained stuck between my teeth.
Then tried to remove it by brushing the area heavily, but that only resulted in bleeding gums.
Then I tried some dental floss, but since there's virtually no space between my two teeth, it broke off as well.
I almost ran out of ideas, until I found a pair of tweezers in the bathroom and they finally got the job done.
However, I had to position the tweezers in a way that I could get ahold of the last remaining part of the toothpick, which was positioned on the inside of my mouth, nearly putting the tweezers in my damn throat in order to ahold of it.
But it worked and I removed the small chunk of toothpick that was stuck between my teeth for a while.
Maybe some tiny, tiny part is still in there, but I cba about that part, it's irrelevant and maybe there's nothing left.
TL;DR: Be careful with using toothpicks if you have teeth that are really jammed close together, a small part could break off and remain stuck between your teeth.
