In a traditional Zen Garden, sand is carefully raked around a set of protruding stones in order to create an area of quiet contemplation.
Zen Garden of Dental Gravel follows this same principal, but with two main variations.
The first of these is the nature of the gravel itself. In this case it
is modelled and mass produced to look exactly like extracted teeth. Only about a hundred different teeth are required to create the necessary variety needed for mass production. Some teeth have fillings in place; some have stains and broken bits. When they are poured and scattered at odd angles, the net effect is that they all look slightly different.
The second variation involves the protruding stones in the garden. Instead of solid stones there are dark inscrutable holes of various sizes around which the teeth gravel is carefully raked into lines.
Visitors are invited to add a real tooth to the collection, where it will be included in the installation during one of the periodic rakings.

If all of them had fine nylon cord attached to the root, which ran down through the support surface and around little pulleys to an actuating wiggler, then you could rig up a motion detector to set them all chattering when someone walked up the path. |

Where in the hell have you been, waggy? |

To the back of beyond, and now round at the front
of beyond again! |

What he found wasn't worth having. So he came back. |

Did he throw it into the volcano in Mt. Doom? |

I went to check out the rest of the internet, but it wasn't
very good so I came back. |

[xenzag], off-topic but in Kundalini Yoga we
sometimes focus our breath and love towards the
back of our heart, and/or lungs. A place rarely
remembered or touched in day to day meditation. |

That's where I pictured wags. Wandering the
chambers of the back of my heart. |

I went there too. Most of it was very nice with well-tended
herbaceous borders, but there were a few dark areas that I
avoided. |
