Will a hole in a crabs shell heal?

Hey guys!
Posted about a pest crab that got out yesterday, and it got back into the tank! I found it today, but it was wedged into a rock really well. I was able to get a wedge in there and get it out, but it seems its grip was stronger than its shell was and there's a small hole cracked into its shell. I've decided to keep the little guy in an incubator (this time with a lid!) until I decide what to do with him. Will his shell heal? Or will it be similar to a turtle shell where they always have that mark? Just curious!
