Acropora with dead ends

[Diveks]

In my 16 gallon, i have some sps growing, i have had this particular acro for about 6 months or more and it has been doing great, growing new branches. Although a few days ago my birds nest that i just got fell onto my acro. I was out from the house for a while and when i came back, my acropora’s ends that got touched by the other coral was white (dead) the rest of the coral is healthy though, and i have re glued the other coral. Should i just leave it be? Or should i do something to the dead parts

Just clip the dead part off so algae won't grow on it. The acro will grow the new tip

Pics before cutting. White tips may be new growth

Leave it be or clip. Doesn’t matter.
