Many barbers also did some dentistry.

I always want a shave and a blood letting after getting some rotten teeth pulled. It was a very convenient trade.

I'm guessing the medieval toothpulling would count as a good bloodletting as well.

It depended if you were a bleeder or not. My barber gave me some salted fish to pack in there, so it really didn't bleed all that much.
