Flying my Mavic indoor using my smartphone was a bad idea. Should I be worried?

I was actually testing something on the drone. I used my smartphone and as it took off it flew forward, went straight into my curtain (which hopefully absorbed a big part of the shock) and well down on my wooden floor. As a result, I got this dent on top. Can this be repaired, and should I be worried of internal damage too? So far, everything seems to be working fine.
 
Looks fairly minor to me as far as crash damage goes. Didn't even see what you were talking about at first. If it flies fine, then I would just move on and take it as a "Lesson Learned": Don't fly inside the house. Too many stories on these forums of people doing that and crashing.
