panasonic dmr ez27eb cannot read cds / dvds?

My youngest son inadvertently knocked the CD holder when it was ejecting a CD Jammed the CD. I took it apart and managed to release the CD but since then it tries to load a CD and then comes up with a message "no read". Have between myself and my son damaged the the unit beyond repair, or is it possibly still financially viable to get this repaired, without having to buy a new DVD player?
