"The Tooth Puller" is an 18th-century oil painting by the Venetian artist Pietro Longhi, renowned for his detailed and often humorous depictions of contemporary Venetian life. Created in 1746, this work is part of a series of genre paintings by Longhi that portray various aspects of everyday life with a particular focus on the professions and entertainments of the time.

The painting illustrates a scene of a street dentist, a common figure in the public squares of Europe, performing an extraction on a rather apprehensive patient. The setting is an intimate interior, possibly a makeshift dental 'office' in a public space, where a crowd of onlookers, including a woman and a young boy, watch the procedure with a mixture of curiosity and concern. The characters are depicted with expressive faces, capturing the tension and comedy of the moment.

Longhi's attention to detail is evident in the costumes and the interior elements, which provide insights into the social and cultural life of 18th-century Venice. The Tooth Puller is celebrated for its narrative quality and its subtle satire of the medical practices of the time. The painting is a fine example of Longhi's skill in capturing the nuances of human expression and the vibrancy of Venetian society.

As a significant work in the oeuvre of Pietro Longhi, "The Tooth Puller" is housed in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. It continues to be a subject of interest for art historians and enthusiasts for its artistic merit and as a historical document of the period.
