tooth and gum decay

I've struggled with dental pain since my teens (I'm now 27). Recently, I phoned my local dentist to see if they were taking on NHS patients. They were not. I also have really bad sensory difficulties surrounding dental appointments. My life is hard enough without having to deal with recurring excurciating pain. Any tips for distractions, soothing techniques, meds? Thank you.
