How to protect the rug from being dented by table stands

carpetprotectiontable

I have one rug (rug on top of carpet in my apartment) in the living room where a center table rests, and one rug under the dining table. Each of the rugs have developed dents at the point of contact with the table stands, (due to the pressure from stands).

Is there any way to protect the rug from denting?

Put something under the table legs to diffuse the pressure to a wider area. Something like the circle disc (2 inch variety) furniture moving pads would work for something like this.
