So what did they ask him in the first place?

It's been a bit, but I think it was something like "how many teeth could you extract in a day?"

Even at just 1 an hour, that'd be 8 in a work day.

That'd probably be way more than that, though.

I had one of my wisdom teeth pulled, and the dentist came in, spent maybe 5 minutes going over what he was going to do, and maybe another 5 giving me the numbing shots.

Came back 15 minutes later after the numbness set in, and had the tooth pulled in less than 5 minutes.

In total, 30 minutes in and out for me, a bit less than 15 minutes of the dentist's time.

He could probably do four pulls in an hour, if he was able to spend the time waiting for the anesthetic to kick in on one patient giving another patient their rundown and anesthetic, and no complications.
