What can we do ? We are controlling the pain with paracetamol and ibruprofen which I'm not happy about. She is 12. Has an existing dental problem and we are waiting on removal with sedation

I feel that the infection has flared and she needs antibiotics to get on top of it again.

The dental practice on the campsite isn't picking up. I'd call out of hours but the pain has subsided for now but it came yesterday too.

Really don't know what to do?

Do you think her dentist would issue a prescription over the phone that could be emailed to a named pharmacy?

Ring 111 - they will advise.

Thing is - the tablets have worked now so I guess I'll just wait til tomorrow. Will I be able to take her to a dentist locally?

I think 111 can triage you to a doctor or dentist - so worth the call & they can advise.
