Tree advice

Last year we had a 6" silver maple installed in the front yard. The guys didn't dig out enough before dropping it in so I had them pull it back out. Well, it sat out on the lawn for about 6 days between the removal and replacement. During that time the tree developed a bend that is quite dissappointing now that its been replaced.

Can it be effectively straightened (somewhat)?

What's the best way to accomplish this given that the tree is 6" at base and about 18' tall?

I can provide pics if they would help.
