I totally think they will be fine.  They are so resilient!!  I had a battle with fungus gnats that kept eating ALL the roots of the seedlings.  I would just poke a hole in the soil big enough to push the seedlings in and they would push out new roots. 
I also had one of my lights fall on some older seedlings crushing some and breaking a few others, not only did all recover but the broken pieces pushed out roots as well.

So how did they bounce back?  I see your about to do some grafting so hopefully most of these babies survived?
