Feeling that something is between two of your teeth but nothing there upon flossing?
Anyone have any idea what this could be? Could there be a cavity in there or could it be a gum issue? I feel like something is between my two front teeth but have flossed so many times, nothing is there! It's very annoying. Any clues?

You could have something under your gumline. Maybe a seed or a small piece of food.
Try brushing carefully over that area to try to dislodge it.

Thats what I think...but what if I cant get it out? What happens to it? Can a dentist even find something "under" the gums?

Yes, a dentist can find it and get it out if you cant.
Do you have a water pic? sometimes that helps too.
