When a can is dented, it can compromise the integrity of the can's seal, potentially allowing bacteria such as Clostridium botulinum to enter. This bacterium produces botulinum toxin, which can cause foodborne illness if the food inside is not properly preserved or cooked. Additionally, other bacteria like Salmonella or Listeria could also proliferate if the can's contents are exposed to air or contaminants. It's essential to inspect canned goods for damage and discard any that are compromised.
