See a dentist: Have the sharp edges of those molars smoothed down and restored, if necessary.

Cut: Just be patient. All small cuts in your mouth are very sensitive and you may feel they are bigger than they are. Your own body will heal them.

Trauma: Your tongue as been traumatized. Until you get the damaged teeth repaired you will continue to irritate the same spot over and over again. See your Dentist. Have the damaged teeth repaired. The tongue will then pretty much heal itself.
