About 12 years ago, my 5 year old son did almost the same thing to a metal woofer on my Thiel CS6. I nearly lost my sh*t. After being assured by the Thiel repair guy that the damage was just cosmetic, I put the grills back on and keep them on to not remind me of the whole situation. Good luck with yours.
I wish I still had the grills for my towers. The dent in the dust cap of one 15" woofer bugs me to this day. Tape and the vacuum cleaner were unsuccessful. The tape simply removed a bit of paper from the dust cap. I've also read about using a Q-tip and superglue, but I didn't want to risk ripping a hole.
You can always hit it with a hairdryer and any little ripples that remain will disappear after popping it out. Not too hot, just enough to soften the dome.

Yes, one of my first reaction was getting the grills and putting them on, but the speakers look gorgeous without them, I didn't even unpack them when I first opened the speaker box.
