If you're not familiar with working brass leave it alone, If you just bend it back there's a good chance you will break it off.
However, if you're a decent DIY guy, you can heat that corner to a dull red and let it sit and cool by itself. Then carefully bend it back into place. I also re-anneal afterwards so that the brass is left in a relaxed state. I took a small aluminum rod and cut a slot in it as a tool to bend teeth, and I put a 90 degree bend in the rod so I didn't need pliers to turn the rod. Before you ask, no, you don't need to quench, that is done with cartridge brass to stop the heat from travelling down into the body and head of the case.
Bent tooth!
