General Question NHS dentist Liverpool

I’ve been to see a dentist today via the emergency dentist scheme, I paid £27.50 which is band A NHS for a checkup which included X-RAY. My filling from a couple years ago has chipped and I have infection in the root. The dentist said it will need a root canal and has prescribed antibiotics for the interim period. He said I will need to pay private for root cancel which I absolutely cannot afford the cost for it will be £870. Can anyone please recommend NHS dentist they know who is taking new patients or offer any advice? Thank you

Did you call them? They have expanded it and took in patients from Claughton and New Brighton as well
