The invention relates to dentifrice and is intended for cleaning teeth and interdental spaces. Disadvantages combined toothpick containing a pointed end and a thread is unreliable yarn which is either unacceptably stretched or torn. The object of the utility model is to improve the reliability of the toothpick through the optimization of the working conditions of the thread. The task is solved in that in a known combination toothpick comprising a holder whose one end is pointed, and a second end configured as a 11-shaped nitkoderzhatelya with fixed between its ends a thread, a significant change, namely: - the ends nitkoderzhatelya are resilient, springy. From the available information sources are not known to the applicant apparatus similar claimed. The solution is new. The yarn can be set at an angle of 15-30 ° to the axis of the holder. Nitkoderzhatel holder and can be made flat and are arranged in one plane. The thickness of the holder may be no less than three times less than its width. Holder except nitkoderzhatelya may be made of a flexible material. The holder may have a rib disposed between the pointed end and nitkoderzhatelem. When tight teeth position where it is difficult to enter the thread between the teeth consumer applies an increased force. Moreover, since the yarn 2 are made stronger, unstretchable - ends 7 nitkoderzhatelya Zizgibayutsya inward flexing yarn 2 and allowing the user to finally introduce the yarn 2 between the teeth. After extraction of the yarn 2 mezhzubovogo space - the ends 7 are straightened, causing the thread to the initial state. 2 thread breakage or non-reducing tension possible. This substantially improves the reliability of the use of toothpicks, completely eliminating the possibility of occurrence of a string of problems. The ends nitkoderzhatelya begin to bend inwardly, e.g., with the feed pressure to the yarn above 1.5-3 kg. Prototypes successfully tested on hundreds of volunteers with different dental condition. 1 n.p.f
