In the 1500s, the task of pulling teeth would most likely be performed by a barber. During that time, barbers often took on medical roles, including minor surgical procedures such as tooth extractions. They were known as barber-surgeons and were responsible for a variety of medical treatments in addition to their hairdressing duties.
