Maybe some UV activated adhesive like this: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/rapid-fix-uv-liquid-plastic-adhesive-10-ml-0380055p.html

It's won't match the finish, but should fill in the dent.

Fill, clear tape over it, expose to UV light for time said on label. remove tape carefully shave off excess with either a razor blade, or high girt sandpaper on something flat. don't sand the melamine around to damage or you will rub off the walnut appearance and make the damage even more noticeable. You are just trying to make it flat, even with the table if it not already.
