Fasting Question

Salam everyone! and Ramadan Mubarak!

This is my first time fasting today. woke up at 3:30 AM because i had to respond for a first aid call. been up since because I wanted to be able to eat and drink plenty before 5:11 AM when my fast started. It’s now 8:21 and I am struggling with my oral fixation. Just wondering if i’m allowed to have a toothpick in my mouth, or even better a tea tree oil infused toothpick (basically a minty toothpick). usually i’m siping on water and way too much coffee all day, or (i’m sorry to say it) but vaping. so i’m really just used to having something in my mouth. is it okay to ease myself with a toothpick pick or a minty toothpick? lmk please and thank you i can’t find anything specific like that on the internet.☺️
