Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Is he facing any difficulties because of it?
Most commonly feeding and speech difficulties are encountered.
You can take him to a general surgeon or a pediatric surgeon and they will examine your child and suggest you further.
Sometimes waiting is required and the condition improves and sometimes a minor surgical procedure is required.
Best regards.
