My lips are very swollen from reaction with teeth whitening. Could this impact my lip filler or my health?

I often purchase professional whitening gels with peroxide & place it in a tray to whiten my teeth. Yesterday I did that & fell asleep, I somehow took the trays out mid-sleep & caused the teeth whitening to stay against my lips for hours. When I woke up I quickly washed my mouth, but 1 hr later my lips swelled up SO big! Its slowly going down today. Could this have any impact on my current lip fillers or my health? I noticed a few small white spots also develop in my mouth, but they went away.
