Rinse your mouth with a glass full of warm water to which a small spoon of salt has been added. Take a mouthful of water, swish and rinse, and the spit it out. continue until the water is all gone. Do this every hour during the day. It will eventually go away.
Also, try not to keep touching the cut with your tongue and or to irritate it with food or your teeth.

rinse with salt water or tea and or sage tea also buy some abesol and place it in the cut or dry the cut and close it on a drop of super glue ask for help that will close it or use some cloves just place a clove whole on the cut area and close you mouth the oil will seep into and numb it

Go to the store and buy a product called kanka. It's in the toothpaste isle. It'll numb the pain and help it go away.

apply some ice pack if it has happend just now(within a few hours)..if its an old bruise then a warm saline rinse would do you lot of good. if it hurts you really bad go see a doc.

Mix a little hydrogen peroxide with a little water and swish and spit. It will help speed the healing process. DO NOT swallow any of the mix.

Three things you can try with no risk
Glycerine and Tannic acid

Vit C to be dissoled in mouth.
These al if you have only minor cut.

sugar! I'm not kidding! It actually, stops the bleeding, decreases pain (dont ask me why) and tastes good! Just dip your finger in sugar and coat the cut! It really works!
