Wheel bearing replacement booboo

While replacing the front wheel bearings i pushed in the hub without the square flange? with the 4 bolts. Quickly realized the mistake and pulled the hub out. It was still cold from the trip to the freezer. came out fine. Checked the bearing inner race. That seemed fine as well. Fitted it all back and drove for a few hundred yards and nothing obvious. Am i looking at some issues? Do bearings need to be replaced every time you pull the hub out? Do they affect the performance in any way?

When i removed my old front ones, one broke and the other stayed intact.
