My observation - that is more than 'a dent'. The top area above the belt line is caved considerably and lower area is pushed and stretched. The best way, the correct way is to cut and replace with a patch panel. That metal is stretched so much ( & it's very thin) you'll never be able to pull it out and make the original shape again.

If there are no patch panels available for that piece, look at the scrap yards where the bed is too damaged to sell complete but that part is good.
