Suppose you had a very slight car accident and a point of the car's door looks as if it's pushed in, something like this

However, without any scratches, just a simple anomaly that can be easily fixed. How do you describe the door?

I came up with:

1. The car's left door is now a bit deformed


2. The car's left door is now a bit pushed-in


3. The car's door looks concave

I am not sure about any of these sentence. Would you help with this?

The car's door is dented.

The door has a large dent.

It's called a dent (noun). The door is dented (adj). He had a small accident and dented (verb) the door.

My first thought was “dent”:

dent

a small, hollow mark in the surface of something caused by pressure or being hit:

She ran into my car and put a dent in it.

(Cambridge Dictionary)

Briefly, “deformation” suggests to me a manufacturer’s error, not a dent.

“Pushed in” seems okay to me, but that’s somewhat broad, or not as specific as “dent”.

“Concave” sounds like a technical observation and not really like damage from an accident.
