(14,733 posts)The hole is in it because an older filling crumbled away. If it gets to the point it starts hurting, I'll go in and at least get it cleaned and refilled on a credit card. They had just warned me when I went in before that if I do that, I might not have enough left for them to do a crown later. But really, I've gotten used to that hole, and probably could just get used to having the tooth pulled out entirely if it came to that.
Actually, one of my strawberry beds is overtop of some cherry wood I buried, and that bed was the most productive of the lot this year. The wood is decomposing nicely, and probably helped keep things a bit warmer. I may try another bed like that, I just cut down one of my two remaining cherry trees, since I'm starting to get more fruit from the cherry bush than I ever was getting from the trees between brown rot, birds, and bugs. I've still got a lot of maple wood too from another tree i had down, and was thinking about trying some mushroom inoculations in an old shed out back. I hear they like hardwoods.
