Emergency Dental Care?

[citygirl]

In the last 24 hours, I've developed a very painful infection in my tooth and am in agony. Of course this happened right as I am switching medical plans (get my new one on Monday). In the meantime, I don't want to wait until Monday. Is there any place to go to have them do at least an interim cleaning & give me some antibiotics? Walk-in dental clinic? Would a public hospital be able to do this? Or maybe I should just go to a regular dentist and pay out of pocket?

I feel 4 u =( On Cordoba ave between Callao and Pueyrredon, there are several walk in dental clinics open 24/7, it shouldn´t be that expensive, most likely you will be given an analgesic and antibiotic before doing anything to your teeth. i wouldn´t go to a public hospital for this though.
