If the right paren was added by automatic pair matching, you should just
be able to type a right paren to skip over it. Otherwise, how about
recording a macro to move one character to the right (using the cursor
keys, of course) and assigning it to a key of your choice? Or creating a
snippet that you can tab through?

You could possibly get more creative by writing a command bound to the
period key, examining $TM_CURRENT_LINE and $TM_COLUMN_NUMBER to take
different actions depending on whether or not the next character is a
right paren.
