My iPad Air 2 was in a case that allowed it to stand and my dad accidentally sat on it. I took the case out and it very slightly bent. You can only see it if it is set down on a table and look at it parallel to it. What can I do to fix this.
 
It's gonna be bent. If the screen isn't damaged, iPad isn't malfunctioning, sounds good to me. Trying to unbend it is just opening the door for worse damage.

I tried unbending it before you replied, and I heard a small crack, but there is no indication of damage and I can't see anything except for the bend, but I;'m worried why I heard a crack. Any explanation?
 
I have the same problem but I have AppleCare+. Can I take it in and get mine repaired?
Yeah, you can replace it in the Apple Store. Unfortunately for me, I don't have Apple Care and my warranty ended in November, so there is no chance of mine being replaced

Could be stress on the screen. I really can't say, not a technician. Hopefully nothing internal was damaged.

I did unbend it mostly so you can do that with yours. I bent it and mostly unbent it when I first got it back in 2014. Heh I was really pissed at the time because this happened in less than a month of me owning it!
