you can't tell it's there unless you press around for it and then you feel it

yeah. I get these sometimes.. I always used to call them marbles in my jaw. It actually feels like they can move around as well..and very sore..However, what I have actually found is that thes are little cancer sores inside your mouth...if you look
very close in a mirror, and pull your lip down so you can see the very base of your gums..you will likely see whay I am talking about. Start rinsing with salt water, and if it doesn't seem to get better in a day or two, go to the doctor.

Well it could be a stopped up syliva gland, or it could be a little cyst (pocket of fluid). It is good that it moves around though. Go see a doctor they could do an ultrasound on it to see exactly what it is made of.

You should get it checked by a doctor, no a dentist, becuase I've heard of cases similar to yours, where people ahve a tiny hole in thier cheek/throat and it fills with their food/drink/saliva and closes off. It can get to be very dangerous.
