On the top right side of my mouth my retromolar trigone is tender and swollen. what could this be?

Retromolar trigone: Based on your age that might be related to an unerupted or erupting wisdom tooth. Other possibilities are canker sore, irritation from food, gum inflammation, viral infection. Best to have your own dentist examine you and determine what it is and if any treatment is indicated.
