Contact your hospital. I did that once when I had a tooth done by my dentist and they didn't completely remove the root before filling it. They will only repair it temporarily, but is better than nothing. It classes as accident and emergency. Ring round the dentists in your area, say it is severe and maybe you can use another dentist private instead of your own for this instance. I go private, not much choice really, and if it costs you £30-60 surely it is worth that. Failing that it has been reported that because of such a bad state of UK dentists, some people have resorted to pliers. But not all pain is where you think it is, as the root is all inter-connected. The tooth with the pain may not be the one with the decay, so if you use pliers (I hope not) make sure you yank the right tooth. <-DO NOT TAKE SERIOUSLY! Willow: It cost me £100 to have my wisdom tooth removed privately than wait for the NHS. Worth it! :)

You tube it. There's a guy that gives a tutorial on how to take the toothache away. He takes a Advil liquid gel and pokes a hole in it with a toothpick. He then gets a drip on the toothpick and drops it directly on the spot that hurts. You should really watch the video. And be sure not to let it touch your cheek. Just watch the vid.Good luck!
