Call their after-hours number if they have one (either the dentist's or the doctor's).  Don't just sit on this.

Ditto RockRose, did you get an antibiotic?  If your dentist is unavailable, put in a call to your ob-gyn, explain the situation and see if you can get a prescription for one.

Did the dentist not give you an antibiotic prescription to fill and take before and after the procedure?  I'd start by calling him to get the antibiotic.

I'd go to the hospital to get some fluids and checked out to make sure it isn't something more. Do you have a fever? If so just go in hun
