What do you think is the state of dentistry in Westeros? Breanne loses teeth and Reek III has a mouth full of broken teeth (shudder) yet they don’t seem to be in mind-blanking agony all the time.

Well, they’ve got painkillers (milk of the poppy), anti-septics (firemilk, Myrish fire, boiling wine – although there’s a logical flaw there), and maaaybe, maaaybe some crude anti-biotics (in the form of poultices that use mold).

And they do have (wooden) dentures. 

But yeah, not great.
