...significant denting doesn't usually occur until the latter half of incubation, but egg positioning (ie, any torqing on the egg) can be a reason for earlier denting...certianly insufficient humidity can do it...
...Keep the humidity UP until the eggs pip...add a few ml's of water about every 7 days or so...humidity is lost when the egg chamber is opened for egg inspection...
good luck...

They dent about a week to a week and a half before hatching.
We don't change the humidity at all during incubation.
