What can I do for horrible tooth pain for four days.

I have been having horrible tooth pain for the last 4 days or so. I have been taking some antibiotics that I had at home Amoxicillin 500mg two twice a day. I have also been taking ibuprofen 500mg every 4 to 6 hours with no relief. Jaw is sore and chin.  What else can I do? Trying to get in to see dentist as I type.

Ibuprofen +acetaminophen(Tylenol )yields more analgesic effect. However, seeing a dentist ASAP is advised.
