Something Is Stuck In My Teeth!

One of the top back molars feels like it has something rubbery stuck to
the bottom of the tooth (not where the gumline is- on the other end),
and between that tooth and the tooth next to it. If I try to remove it
with my tounge, the tooth will get sore. Other than that, I don't get
any pain from it, even when I eat. When I scale it with one of those
hook devices that you can buy from a store, it comes off, and I hear
crunching noises as I remove whatever this stuff is. Some parts of it
comes off easier than others. The part between the two teeth makes a
snapping noise as I try to remove it, but it won't come out. I have only
seem some of it once. It was clear and rubbery. At first I thought it
might be an old chicken bone or something. Any idea what this stuff is?

Well, either tartar or caries (not so probable) - I cannot think of
anything different.

Anyway, the best thing (and the only good thing) you can do about it is
to visit your dentist...

My first guess would be that you _do_ have somethign foreign stuck in
there, like a piece of meat or a bone or something. Why is it there in
the first place? This is the reason you need to see your dentist so s/he
can take an xray of the area. My guess is that there is a loss of bone
around that tooth, and this is permitting stuff to accumulate there.

TW takes the stage, looking like little more than a hank o' hair and
a piece o' bone...

Well it's a darn good life
And it's kinda funny
How the Lord made the bee
And the bee made the honey
And the honeybee lookin' for a home
And they called it honeycomb
And they roamed the world and they gathered all
Of the honeycomb into one sweet ball
And the honeycomb from a million trips
Made my baby's lips

Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life
When you got a wife like Honeycomb

(Honeycomb)

And the Lord said now that I made a bee
I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree
And He made a little tree and I guess you heard
Oh, then well he made a little bird
And they waited all around till the end of Spring
Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing
And they put 'em all into one sweet tome
For my Honeycomb

Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life
When you got a wife like Honeycomb

(Honeycomb)

And the Lord says now that I made a bird
I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word
That sounds about sweet like "turtledove"
And I guess I'm gonna call it "love"
And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere
Gettin' love from here, love from there
And He put it all in a little ol' part
Of my baby's heart

Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life
When you got a wife like Honeycomb

Pete Seeger and The Weavers - Kisses Sweeter Than Wine  

Well, when I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinkin' it over how much I had missed
So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then, and then
Oh, lordy, well I kissed 'er again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

Well I asked her to marry and to be my sweet wife
I told her we'd be so happy for the rest of our life
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man
And then, whoops oh lordy, well she gave me her hand

Well we worked very hard both me and my wife
Workin' hand-in-hand to have a good life
We had corn in the field and wheat in the bin
And then, whoops oh lord, I was the father of twins

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

Well our children they numbered just about four
And they all had a sweetheart a'knockin' on the door
They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate
I was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

Well now that I'm old and I'm a'ready to go
I get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
Had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
But then, whoops oh lordy, well I'd do it all again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm? kisses sweeter than wine

Once I had a gentleman come in for a similar problem, but he had something
stuck behind his front teeth, on the palate. I looked for a few minutes then
located a whisker stuck in the tissues (around the rugae). It was my first
whiskerectomy.

There is a bad joke in there somewhere .......
