Front wheel was run over

My front wheel was run over, it was not on the bike. There are a few gouges that I sanded down with emery paper. The rim is a little narrower in one section. I assume that this will cause weird braking. I have trued the wheel and it may ride fine

is there any way to fix the rim? like bending it back out?

is there anything elseI should do?

I thought about replacing the rim but it is a Campagnolo Khamsin wheel so it is pretty cheap and I don't know where to get a replacement rim. But to replace the front wheel is more than 50% the cost of a new wheel set.
