Perhaps the dentist was thinking about lunch and started working before the drugs had time to kick in all the way. The “painless” dentists used ether back then, I seem to recall. Crank that stuff up and the tooth pull would still hurt, but you wouldn’t care much. I don’t know if they used injection drugs.
