Donot panic...
This is mostly a cheekbite. The culprit being the sharp third molar.
To be on a safer side go for trimming of sharp edges of your upper third molars.
If the symptom doesn't subside one month after trimming.... Then go for a checkup with a MDS in oral medicine
Next Steps
Relax and visit a dentist for enameloplasty
