What is cleft palate?

image Cleft palate is a treatable birth defect in which the baby's roof of the mouth (palate) does not develop normally during pregnancy, leaving an opening (cleft) that may go through to the nasal cavity.

Cleft palate may involve any part of the palate, including the front part of the roof of the mouth (hard palate) or the small tag of tissue that hangs down from the soft palate (uvula). It may also occur by itself or along with other birth defects of the face and skull, particularly cleft lip.

Cleft palate and cleft lip are the most common congenital defects of the head and neck. Until treated surgically, cleft palate can interfere with feeding, speech development, and hearing.
