Question

I brushed my teeth then I did ghusl. After that I felt there was some thing on the side of my tooth. I removed it with my finger and it was a piece of food but it was soft (may be a piece of chicken) on the side of my tooth but attached to the surface. Is my ghusal valid?

Answer

It is valid. If you are in doubt you may gargle your mouth again.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
