hello , food getting stuck can be due to various reasons , but at an early age , it is something that you should worry about. the possibe causes may be- tooth decay at the sides of the teeth , spacing , or localised gum infection. i would advice you to get it checked immediately and also start using a "Waterpik " ... it will do miracles for your condition
