Today, I was using a wooden toothpick to try to get at some food that was firmly lodged between my teeth. The toothpick broke and now I also have a splinter of wood jammed in there too. FML
False_Stupidity tells us more.
Tried floss but that didn't work. Ended up buying some plastic toothpicks and was able to eventually pry the food and splinter free. I think I'll be using plastic from now on after this experience.

Dental floss would've been a better choice.

Wooden you choose a less dangerous thing to use?

Dental floss is always an option

Remove tooth, blow on it, reinsert it, and see if issue persists.

If you can't get it out yourself, I would highly advise making an appointment with your dentist. That's not something that should be left in there.
