Swelling of the cheek and tooth/sinus pain after Juvederm. Should I see my doctor?

Anta
I've had 1 syringe of Juvederm Ultra for both my lips and nasolabial folds about 36 hrs ago. Some bruising of the lips is present (which is not a major concern). However, swelling of the cheek has started about 24 hrs post injection. There is also tooth/ sinus type of pain on one side that needed more filler. I know that my sinuses lay low and that two tips of the tooth roots are in the sinus on the spoljne side. Any advice before I see my doctor?
