Information on dentists at https://bda.org/museum/enquiries/PublishingImages/-and-research/was-your-ancestor-a-dentist-factsheet.pdf. The BBC Two documentary "The Victorian Pharmacy" showed one of the team branching out into dentistry in the final episode. As a vet he would have learnt all about "teeth pulling". In one of the James Herriot books he is getting a tooth extracted by a RAF dentist and comments that that is how he does it. The dentists asks for his occupation to which he replies a vet!
One of my favourite TV programmes is "The Yorkshire Vet", which is James Herriott's old practice in North Yorkshire. Scarcely a week goes by without an animal having a tooth extracted or a horse having its teeth filed down.
