I'm really worried because a little piece of my tooth in the upper jaw, close to my wisdom tooth, broke off a couple of days ago, and it just keeps hurting constantly. I've been taking Zerodol-P and Augmentin 375 like someone suggested to help with the pain, but it's not getting any better. Should I be doing anything else before I can see a dentist, or is there something specific I should ask them?

I'm dealing with a mouth ulcer and picked up Dologel CT ointment from the chemist to use on it. I'm a bit worried though, since it's meant for oral use, and I'm wondering if swallowing a bit by accident could be harmful. Can you help clear this up for me?
