In semi-rare cases, actually. And it may also emancipate tooth enamel.
Not sure about gums and dentures.
Hm, maybe I played too often...

Loud crunching sound? Is that actually audible? :/
I wouldn't know; my screams didn't let me hear any such sound...

Most sounds that happen inside your head sound much louder to you than
they do to everybody else.
> I wouldn't know; my screams didn't let me hear any such sound...
Well, yeah, there is that.
I especially liked the comment the dentist made about how if he'd kept
all the teeth, he could have made a little necklace of human teeth by
now. "It would be like Predator." Thanks for that, guys. You're really
not helping me...

They gave me blacked out sunglasses to wear! After I saw the size of the
injection they were about to give me through the small gap under the
glasses, I kept my eyes tightly closed for the rest of it!

Heh. I remember vividly having impacted wisdom teeth removed. One was
done at the dentists chair. I opted for nitrous. Fun stuff. The rest had
to be removed by an "oral surgeon" Though I don't remember the actual
extractions due to the general anesthetic I was under I do vividly
remember the aftermath.
Lets just say a mouth full of stitches and an upset stomach don't mix
real well. I couldn't keep down the painkillers if I wanted to.
The next morning, I decided the painkillers were a nice novelty to look
at. I didn't need them. The stitches were highly annoying, though.

Yeah... On the one tooth they removed (A wisdom tooth). I kept hearing a
very loud snapping sound. Almost like the pliers they used couldn't grip
the tooth and kept slipping.

I have no idea why I laughed so hard at that.
Somewhere around here I have the video tape taken through the eyepiece of
the lasik machine they used to do my eye surgery. I'm not squeamish about
that stuff.

Maybe the thought of peril-sensitive sunglasses crossed your mind... it
paid a visit to mine at any rate.
