If the fragile metal transducer beneath the plastic tip is distorted, damaged or broken, the Pencil will require replacement. Repair of an Apple Pencil is not possible.
If your Pencil is within its one year warranty, it may be worthwhile asking for help at an Apple Store - but be aware that accidental damage is not covered by the limited warranty. However, if your iPad has AppleCare+ cover, then accidental damage of the Pencil may be covered.
In view of the non-repairable nature of the Pencil, Apple’s quoted “repair” cost for a Pencil is the price of a new item.
