Top Tube dent on Ala Carte?

My rear brake failed on me today and resulted in pretty solid crash. On the way down the front brake hit the frame and put a small dent in my top tube. The dent is aprox. nickel sized in diameter and about 1/8th inch deep, kinda kinked a bit at the bottom.

Other then being it being ugly do I have anything to worry about? I can get a photo if needed.

Thanks.
