Here's a trick from Apartment Therapy's Home Hacks 2010 on removing or covering up dents and dings in wooden furnitures.  I haven't tried this one yet but this looks very interesting and I might try this just to satisfy my curiosity. 

With just a piece of walnut, you can cover up small dents and scrapes in any wooden furniture.  If you are a vintage furniture collector or restorer, add this to your bag of tricks.

Below are the exact instructions from the article.
