How do I clean the hole in my tooth post-root canal? Any tips to keep it clean until I can get a crown?

emunoz2
I got a root canal done a while ago, and i can't afford to get a crown put over it anytime soon. I've been trying to keep it clean but it's difficult with a normal toothbrush and I'm constantly pulling food out of it. Any tips to keep it clean until I can get a crown? My toothbrush just doesn't get in the hole the way I would like it to. Thank you in advance.
