By looking at attached picture it seems like a cheek bite. But it could be due to other reason also like any sharp tooth edge.
Wait for a week, rinse with warm saline water two to three times a day, if it heals then nothing to worried about it. If it reoccur then consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options.

Hi, seems like it is a bitten injury only. Nothing much to worry. You can apply ghee. Or RAS gel. This gel will give a anesthetic effect for few minutes so you can apply before 10 mins you eat. Wash once before you eat.
Next Steps
yet consult a dentist if it keeps on recurring, as it might be due to sharp upper teeth
