What Is The Way To Stop Irritation In Skin Part Of Mouth Where Bottom Lip Is Attached To Gum Due To Drilling?

I went to the Dentist on Monday and they cleaned my teeth and gums with that buzzing drill. They reached very far down my mouth and drilled at the skin part that connects the bottom lip to the gum. What should I do to make it stop? It is really bothersome and prevents me from talking a bit.
