I can think of two things to try.

First, open an app which has the share button. Activate share. Go to more and 
activate it. Go through the list and see if Pages is in it and it says off 
button. If so, activate off to switch it to on. Then, go to the upper right 
corner of the display to activate the done button. It may be a good idea to try 
this in Pages as well.

If that does not work, make sure all of the documents in Pages are backed up 
somewhere else. Remove pages from the iDevice. Go through the app store app on 
the device to download and install the latest Pages to get rid of any file 
corruptions.rr
