I have some pain in my right side of the tongue. Consulted many dentist who said my tongue is being hurt by the teeths as it is coming in between. Also doctor says my tongue is large and have teeth marks over the tongue. I am worried and keep thing negative things about it. Please help. There are no ulcers seen on the tongue. When there is a pain in other part of the body the tongue pain goes off.

The pain may be due to sharp teeth and adding to that you may have bruxism habit which means involuntary grinding of teeth in sleep.
It may also be due to malaligned teeth which is not letting you have a normal occlusion.
Next Steps
The first thing is a full mouth xray (OPG) you must get done when you go to the dentist.
