Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have decayed broken tooth which has sharp edge causing injury on tongue for this you should visit dentist and go for Extraction of tooth or Grinding of tooth ,
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day
You can apply Anaesthetic gel MUCOPAIN on tongue twice daily for one week it will help you
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health
