Dent on Macbook Air M1

Hi, I accidentally dropped my Macbook Air and it got a dent on the lower left side of the screen. Can Apple still repair the dent or the screen needs to be replaced? Thank you.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.5

Is the screen damaged or is it just the case that's dented? If all it is is the case, to me that looks like a minor cosmetic issue. Apple might still repair it but it would likely be horribly expensive and I suspect you may have to pay for it entirely yourself since even if you have AppleCare, cosmetic damage may not be covered
