There is no means to un-dent the damaged area. I’m not sure that’s the issue as I don’t see the butterfly mechanism which offers the pressure to the key. Go to this site TheBookYard - KeyCaps parts click on the country icon of your system to find the needed parts.

The picture taken was without the parts, I ordered new set of keys/parts from replacementkeys and put it in but that didn’t solve the problem either..
