To no be expected to pay for private dentist as my nhs dentist is not able to complete work

I have an nhs dentist and I believe he is fairly new in the industry and doesn’t have a large amount of experience, this is now the 2nd time I’ve needed certain treatment that he’s unable to do and is telling me I will need to go to see a private dentist and pay to have the work completed he cannot do…

This is unfair surely it isn’t my fault he’s not experienced enough to do it and he should refer me to another nhs dentist who can? I’ve already had to pay privately for an extraction he messed up and couldn’t finish leaving me with blood pouring out my mouth until I could pay to see a private dentist to finish it.
I’ve also recently had a baby so really don’t have the funds for private dentistry and should still be receiving free nhs treatment for a year

Any advice would be appreciated

I had a wisdom tooth taken out last year at a private dentist and I wasn't charged a fee for this.
