Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The dent over the nose can be because of a fractured nasal bone secondary to trauma. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral and maxillofacial surgeon and get it evaluated. You have to get a radiograph done to confirm the diagnosis. If it is a fracture, then it has to be treated.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
