In 1892, a Canadian dentist called Edgar Parker

born Edgar R.R. Parker, 22 March 1872

DUDE WAS ONLY 20 WHEN HE STARTED THIS!?

To be fair, he didn’t exactly have to go to dental school or anything

Listen, if all you're doing is extractions all you need is a spike, a hammer, some pilers, some elbow grease and a strong stomach.

Edit: turns out he did go to dental school though

I pulled a tooth out of my dads face once with some fishing line and a scrap piece of wood

It was awesome
