To be more precise the Whipping Boy was usally a peasent who would have been paired with the prince at a young age and make them best friends and if the prince acted out he would see or know that his best friend was being hurt. It worked... most of the time

I would like to point out that the literal "whipping boy" existed only for princes; princesses were rarely punished with physical violence.

The whipping boys were often also friends of the royal child. Even Henry the eighth cared about his assigned whipping boy and didnt want to see him hurt

Edward VI's whipping boy was called Barnaby (if I remember correctly). He was his friend, and one of the only people Edward seemed to show affection to in his letters, Barnaby reporting that he was like 'a protective Father'.*

The teeth removal was eaven more horrifing then what was shown in the video, most common practice for obtaining teeth was to be an observer at a battle...
