Does an ice dam permanently damage the roof?

I’m currently looking at a house that has some water damage to the ceiling tile in one room. I know we’ve had problems with ice dams forming on roofs in this area this winter, and this is most likely the cause of the damage. I’m currently trying to get that verified, but considering the property is a foreclosure, i don’t know if i’ll ever find out for sure. But anyways, will i have to worry about continued leaking or would there be no problems since the ice dam is gone? Btw, the ceiling tiles were dry and there did not appear to be any damage to the carpeting beneath that area.
