10 year old boy - Impacted (?) Canine Question

Hello, we recently took my 10-year-old son to see his orthodontist and were told that his left mandibular canine appears to be positioned very close to his left permanent incisor. The orthodontist expressed some concern about the canine’s location and suggested a possible treatment plan.

I’m attaching the X-rays here and was hoping to get additional opinions on potential next steps.

I also have the original imaging files available as .dcm files on Google Drive, and I’d be happy to share them if that would be helpful for anyone willing to take a closer look.

Thank you in advance for any insight you can provide.
