I second (or is it third) finding a new dentist. With something like that you should be "squeezed in" the same day if not the next.
Call the dentist back and tell them you are in pain and need to be seen ASAP. If they can't (or won't) see you immediately, ask them to refer another dentist that will be able to see you. They'll either comply and send you to a colleague or they'll get the hint and find an opening.
This is one of those times where it pays to be really assertive.
