The Gum between my two bottom front teeth has disconnected and is moving around.!
Question: Let me start by saying that my dental hygiene is great...
Anywho, I have noticed today that the gum between my two bottom front teeth is no longer connected and it feels sorta weird (doesn't feel like anything technically, I can move it around with my tongue and that is what is weird).
Has this happen to anyone before? If so was it serious? I am just curious... would hate to go to the dentist for something small.

While this is definitely not normal, I'd give it a few days to see if it doesn't resolve [and try to stop playing with it]. You may have injured the tissue which has caused it to enlarge and if that's the case it will heal itself. However, if it gets worse or doesn't resolve in a week call your doc for an evaluation.
If your teeth are loose then see your dentist immediately.
I haven't ever had that, but as we age, our gums recede. Also, if the gum is irritated it might swell some between the small close teeth. If it doesn't clear up in a week or so, see a dentist to be sure.
Go to the dentist.
what I can gather from your description, this looseness could be because of the gingivitis--- ie chronic inflammation of the gums, which could in turn be because of the tartar deposits in that particular area. In any case, you need to pay a visit to the dentist for proper check-up. In any case, it is a very common complaint, dont worry- go ahead and seek professional care. Please dont forget....a stitch in time saves nine!!!
