It might seem like a strange concept, sticking metal into one's mouth to dislodge that pesky piece of food stuck between teeth in place of floss or wooden dental tools, but the Titanium Toothpicks is a great alternative to both. Made out of multicoloured anodized grade 5 titanium (Ti-6A1-4V), they are "light weight, very strong, won’t take a charge, is non-reactive to humans, won’t rust and isn’t ferrous," according to the mastermind behind them.
Designed by Jamie Piekkola, the Titanium Toothpicks are currently being sold through his Facebook page. Available in either glow-in-the-dark epoxy or tritium paint, the Titanium Toothpicks is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional toothpicks. The Titanium Toothpicks can potentially last for a lifetime.
