The Oral-Fixation Tool Nobody Told You About
Sponsored · From the Natura Pine journal
The oral-fixation tool nobody told you about.
Why a two-inch piece of flavored birch keeps showing up on desks, dashboards and gaming setups. (Yes, it's a toothpick. Stay with us.)
We make Natura Pine, so we're biased. We'll keep it honest anyway.

Watch anyone on a long call. A pen cap goes in. A thumbnail goes up. The snack drawer opens for no reason. A hand drifts to a pocket.
None of that is really about pens, snacks or pockets. It's your hands and mouth looking for a job.
Most of us never pick that job on purpose. We grab whatever's closest. So here's a thought: what if the closest thing was actually good?
That's the whole case for the flavored toothpick. We've shipped 18,000+ orders of them, so let us walk you through it.

Skip ahead: try all 4 flavors in the Starter Pack →1. Your hands and mouth want a job.
Habits like vaping, smoking and nail biting are a mix of things, and one of them is plain physical routine. The National Cancer Institute's Smokefree.gov lists "needing something to do with your hands or mouth" as a common trigger.¹ The American Academy of Dermatology suggests nail-biters keep their hands busy too.²
We can't help with the rest of that list (nicotine is a conversation for your doctor). But a job for your hands and mouth? That's what a pick is for.
“Perfect for chewing on at work and the flavor is surprisingly strong and lasts a pretty long time”Verified review · Roasted Cinnamon
2. Most mouth-fillers come with baggage.
Gum keeps your jaw busy but gives your hands nothing, and the flavor goes flat. Snacks bring sugar along for the ride. Pen caps and straws are plastic. Fidget toys are great, for your hands.

|---|---|---|---|
| Something to hold | ✓ | ✕ | ✓ |
| Something for your mouth | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |

3. Why birch?
Natura Pine picks are 100% natural birch wood: smooth, sturdy enough to park in the corner of your mouth, and biodegradable. (The packaging isn't. We'd rather tell you than greenwash it.) Every batch is lab tested in the USA.
Zero nicotine. Zero sugar. Zero calories. Zero plastic. Zero PFAS. Birch, flavor and stevia. That's the list.
4. Flavor finally got good.
Old-school toothpicks tasted like a fence. These taste like this, with zero sugar (sweetened with stevia):
“love these things. they were a little sticky when I first opened them up, but their just awesome. I usually have bitterness issues with Stevia, but not with these.”Verified review · Campfire Coffee

Not sure? Find my flavor →5. The toothpick has always been a vibe.
Cowboys. Mechanics. Mob bosses. The anime rival leaning on a wall. The guy at the gas station who definitely has a plan. A toothpick has always said "I'm relaxed, and I know something you don't."
People still search for the cinnamon toothpicks they remember from the '70s and '80s. We just made one worth remembering.
6. Made by a guy who bit his nails.
"For years, I was a chronic nail-biter. Long days and high-stress deadlines at work left my hands looking like they'd been through a blender."
"In 2018 I moved to Texas for my first agency job. After a team lunch, a coworker handed me a flavored toothpick. I started reaching for a pick instead of my nails, and I never really stopped."
"My co-founder Bricky swears picks keep him locked in on stream. Every tin is hand-illustrated by our artist, Skelobite. No AI, ever."
Thomas Hajduk, Founder & CEO, Natura Pine
7. About 17¢ a moment.
A 100-pick tin is $16.99, which works out to 17¢ a pick. The Starter Pack is about 20¢. That's less than a sip of the coffee you're holding.
If an order ever arrives damaged or defective, our 30-day quality guarantee covers it. 18,000+ orders later, we're pretty confident.

“It's an excellent item to start your Natura Pine journey. I wasn't sure what flavor to start with so this was perfect. Now I know what flavors suit me. Definitely recommended for new comers.”
“Soft, rich taste.”
“Best flavor of the sampler.”
“Whoever packed this tin is a real one. Bro packed ‘em in there like sardines, and I’ve never been happier to struggle opening something up lol”
“Soild flavor tastes mostly like pineapple if a bit less sweet than just pineapple juices. Sadly I droped like 3/4ths of my tin and had it bake in the sun for 9 hours still tasted slightly like pineapple. Will buy again.”
“They are toothpicks. They taste of vanilla. Perfection.”

Fair questions
Why a toothpick and not gum?
Gum keeps your mouth busy but gives your hands nothing to do, and the flavor goes flat. A pick is something to hold and something to taste, with zero sugar.
Can a toothpick help me quit vaping or smoking?
No toothpick can do that, and we won't pretend otherwise. Natura Pine isn't a cessation product. It's something for your hands and mouth in the moment. If you're quitting nicotine, talk to your doctor about a plan.
Do these have nicotine?
No. Zero nicotine and zero tobacco. Just 100% natural birch wood, flavor and stevia.
How long does the flavor last?
About 5 to 15 minutes a pick, depending on how you chew. When it fades, grab another. The Starter Pack has 76.
Do I chew it or just hold it?
Park it. Bite gently a few times to release the flavor, then rest it between your cheek and teeth. Gnaw it like a pen cap and it will snap (that's the old habit talking).
Are toothpicks safe to chew?
For adults using them as intended, yes. For adults. Bite gently, don't swallow pieces, and don't use while sleeping, lying down or playing sports. Keep away from kids and pets.
What if I don't like the flavor?
Our guarantee covers damaged or defective orders, not flavor preference. That's why we suggest starting with the Starter Pack: four flavors, about 20¢ a pick. If something's wrong with your order, email a photo to shop@naturapine.com within 30 days and we'll ship you a new one.
