How to Repair Wood Floors or Furniture with Dents (Using an Iron!)

Many years ago a teacher told me that you could steam out a dent in a piece of wood (one where the wood fibers had been compressed, not where they had been removed) using a wet rag and an iron. This technique was meant for unfinished wood, but unfortunately, most of the wood we deal with in our homes has some sort of finish on it. With some research I learned that this technique can work with finished wood but it depends greatly on the type of finish you are dealing with.

Any easy way to fix this dent in hardwood floor or am I to let it torture me til the end of my days? : r/Home
