Hello, thank you for sharing your problem with us.
There are many causes of soreness of tongue it can be iron or vitamin deficiency or any infection underneath the tongue but all these conditions are there when the whole of tongue is sore.
In your case it may be any trauma from the adjacent tooth of right side or can be infection also. it will be better that you should visit a dentist nearby which can examine the tongue and rule out the cause and get the necessary investigations done.
