In the nineteenth century, the terms teeth drawer and tooth drawer apparently referred to people who performed dental work and to the dental tools, like pliers or forceps, they used to remove teeth. (Oxford English Dictionary, “tooth-drawer,” accessed 25 July 2025, oed.com; Goddard and Parker, Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology of the Human Teeth, 21.)
