Brief Answer:
Can be a bone loss due to past injury.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
A dip in the top of the head that you have can be due to an injury or a bone loss in the area. This can be a soft tissue injury also. A direct examination can help in detecting the cause. In case there is no pain or swelling in the surrounding area and the indentation seems to be bony hard then a CT scan might help in detecting the pathology.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
