I got something caught between two of my back teeth last night. I've attacked it with floss, I've tried toothpicks, I've tried waxed paper - and still I can't shift it.  I know from experience that the gum is going to get very sore if I can't remove it.  (floss slides right past it - it's caught in a crack or something in the actual tooth)

Any suggestions?
