This is the moment a three-year-old boy turns dentist to yank out one of his big brother’s wobbly baby teeth with his fingers in north-west China.
The endearing brotherly moment was filmed by the boys’ mother, Ms Jin, who told local media that her five-year-old son was having trouble with a tooth that was ready to fall out.
His younger brother became very curious about the situation.
Ms Jin said the five-year-old began complaining of his front tooth while they were at home in the city of Shangluo, in the province of Shaanxi.
The baby brother said he wanted to take a look and asked his big brother – who was afraid he might feel pain – to stand still.
He leaned in to try and touch it but ended up pulling it out with one smooth swipe.
The pair seemed incredibly pleased with the result and happily showed mum the extracted tooth, who was filming her boys.
She later posted the video on Douyin – the Chinese version of TikTok – where thousands of shocked netizens poked fun at the cheap at-home procedure carried out by the three-year-old dentist.
