I'm pretty sure Pulling Teeth is about Mike Dirnt's ex-wife. They were having a pillow fight and Mike turned around the corner and hit his head on a low beam and then fell backwards and broke both of his elbows. (suddenly "I'm all busted up, broken bones & nasty cuts, Accidents will happen, But this time I can't get up" makes a little more sense!)
I've also heard that there is a Metallica song called "Anesthesia Pulling Teeth", and because Mike's ex-wife's name was Anastasia, Billie Joe made made the song called "Pulling Teeth".
