Translated from Yalkut Yosef Kitzur Shulchan Aruch:
1. Whoever is accustomed to brushing their teeth daily with
a toothbrush, there are those who say it is prohibited on Shabbat for many
reasons (the chance of bleeding, creating something new when placing the paste
on the brush, etc.). If a person who refrains themselves from brushing will
become upset from the smell of their breathe and other things that result from
not brushing, then one is allowed to brush their teeth on Shabbat even by using
a toothbrush (and not their finger). However, they must be one of those people
who don’t bleed when brushing their teeth. It is best to use liquid toothpaste
and be stringent by buying a toothbrush that will only be used on Shabbat. One
should not wash the toothbrush after using it, to refrain from preparing
something on Shabbat for a yom hol
(weekday).
2. One can use a toothpick on Shabbat, unless it is made out
of metal (because that is considered mukzteh
and cannot be picked up). One is also allowed to take out a piece of food
that is stuck in his/her gums and they must be cautious not to bleed. If one
did bleed from this act it is not considered hillul Shabbat (desecrating the Shabbat).
SHABBAT SHALOM!
