Have you tried accessing out of hours dental treatment yet?

you can still phone them when your dentist is shut (ooh) all they will be likely to give you is pain relief advice have you tried taking paracetamol the 4 hours later ibuprofen then 4 hours later paracetamol? Do not exceed the stated dose of either, a hot pack against the area or an icepack (a bag of frozen peas in a tea towel) Also gargling with hot salty water can help.
The NHS website is misleading.
Since the introduction of the latest NHS dental contract, it is the responsibility of the NHS PCT to provide out of hours treatment, rather then the dentists themselves (although some of this care will be commissioned to those same dentists).
If you phone NHS direct, they should inform you of the local emergency dental provision over the holiday period.
