My son has been complaining about a pain in his mouth. not sure where it is and i'm not sure if a gp would be able to help. and pediatricians are away?

Gp is fine: About a 3rd of the work many GP's do is kids & their training includes them. If they are available & the issue seems urgent to you have them evaluate. A dentist would also be a reasonable idea. If it is not a big issue wait.
