Dark hole: I can't be sure of exactly what you are referring to without actually examining you, but it sounds like you are referring to a a small space between your two front teeth at the gum line where the interproximal gum tissue/papilla does not fill that triangular space fully. This could be due to the size, shape and spacing of your two front teeth, or loss of gum tooth or both. If something else repost
