Possibly.: When a tooth come in out of position, sometimes the pressure of the lip and tongue can straighten it. I don't know which tooth you are concerned about. I would recommend a consultation with an orthodontist. Many of them will not even charge for a consultation, and you'll get the best advice possible!

Hard to say...: It is very possible that the primary tooth prevented the adult tooth from erupting correctly, or it just may be genetics. Either way, by now, at 5 yrs old, your son should have a good relationship with a local dentist. If he doesn't now is the time to start. Make the call for an appointment and have him evaluated.

Needs exam: 5 is a little young for lower incisors to exchange. For boys we usually see this at about age 7. Please ask your child's Dentist to take a look. If there are any questions, see a dento-facial growth and development specialist. It's never too early for an expert opinion.
