How to prevent food lodgement in the retromolar region?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concern. Thank you for taking the time to figure out why that is happening to you. Given your age, my first inclination is that you may have your third molars (wisdom teeth) starting to erupt behind your second molars. Have you ever been told that you have third molars developing? Have you had your wisdom teeth removed? If they are erupting, they can create a small pocket in the tissues that can harbor food particles.
