Hi,

A dent or depression in the bony framework may occur due to injury however if its not creating any problem then I would advise you to ignore it. If its bothering you too much then you can get it rectified by visiting a plastic and reconstructive surgeon. That is the only way to correct it. However, I would still advise you to ignore it and don't let it hamper your confidence.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
