I had 1.8 radiesse injected into my smile lines below my mouth. I had to have more on the left side and this resulted in considerable bruising on the left and swelling of my lip and now many canker sores in my mouth. I can understand these side effects but I also have had toothache like pain in my left jaw/cheek area. It comes and goes and is worse at night. It doesn't appear to be very common. What causes this pain? I am having to take tylenal or pain medication every 4 hours.
