In the center man sits in a chair facing a woman, slightly below her. He uses a pair of tongs to extract her front tooth as she winces in pain, clutching the arm of her chair right hand and crumpling her straw hat with her left. Leaning on the back of the dentist's chair, a second man stares at the scene, wide-eyed and grimacing as he hugs himself in sympathy

Two men sit facing each other as the one on the right pulls on a string which has been tied around a front tooth of the man on the left. His left foot bent up and braced in the patient's left hand, the large-nosed doctor laughs as he pushes a redhot coal in a pair of large tongs towards the patient's mouth. The patient screams in agony as his head is forced back and to the side, his hand pushing the tongs away
