Answers:
During the day, you got several options:
- head to the nearest hospital that has an oral surgery department if you want the tooth pulled. They have residents and dental students who can extract the offending tooth for you.
- head to the nearest dental school if there is one in your vicinity. Dental school usually will treat patients in pain on a walk-in emergency basis. You will be seen by a dental student assigned to emergency rotation that day. They will offer you the option to either extract the tooth or do a root canal.
- find a local dentist who will take emergency patients. This will also give you the option of either extraction or RCT.
After hours, your best bet is a hospital emergency room. At the very least you might be able to get an Rx for antibiotics and painkiller.
Hope this helps, and good luck.
