Yes, the thread in the head is likely to be partially damaged but before you let the repair get out of hand, I'd run a thread chaser into the offending plug hole then fit a brand new set of plugs with a bit of coppaslip on the threads and see how the new plug feels. Chances are it will be fine as it looks like you may have only lost a couple of threads. Given how long plugs last, as long as the new ones go in OK, I wouldn't worry about it; the thread clean up and dap of grease should prevent further deterioration.
