What Causes Blisters In Cheeks After Putting Porcelain Caps?

I had 2 porcelain caps put on on Thursday. The next day ai noticed some blisters forming on the inside of my cheek. They popped and are now sore. I don't know if just rinsing with warm salt water and taking Advil will be enough. Will they go away, or do ai need to go to my Dentist again? I am allergic to sulfa. I did not have any mouth numbing medicine or Novacain for the procedure.
Email YYYY@YYYY . Is this a free service?
I see it is not free so ai will call my dentist in the morning. Thanks anyway.
