What Do You Suggest For The Top Layer Of The Tongue Being Bitten Off?

My son bit the top layer of his tongue off while his mouth was numb from getting dental work done. It is sore and he is having a hard time eating. This was four days ago. It doesn't appear to be getting infected, but is there anything that can be done to aid in the healing process?
