I`m in pain

One of my fillings has fractured and I`m in great pain. I cannot afford private treatment, so I want emergency NHS treatment. Understand there are certain questions you have to answer correctly before you can get it. Does anyone know what these questions are, and the correct answers? Please help. Many thanks in advance.
