It would be much easier for you to see a dentist who could round off that edge of the tooth that is irritating your tongue. Additional surgery may worsen the situation. Go for a consult.

If you have an area that is constantly reinsured it requires treatment. Please see your General Dentist for evaluation of your dentition to assure that a damaged tooth or your occlusion is not causing rein jury. See a specialist Oral Surgeon or specialist Oral Pathologist to evaluate your tongue for the necessity of additional treatment.
