When you have to get a tooth pulled at the dentist can you hear it cracking?

Most of the time, yes, you can hear it. It may be the tooth or a filling cracking, but sometimes the bone makes a little crackling sound as well. Don't worry, it is normal. Most people tolerate extractions without any problem. If you are extremely scared or are a dental phobic, and you think you cannot tolerate the sounds, then sedation is an option to help you relax, but sedation carries its own set of issues, concerns and risks.
