Most of the time (95% of babies with cleft lip with or without cleft palate and 85% for babies with cleft palate alone) a cleft is isolated. Sometimes a cleft can occur as part of a syndrome (5% of babies with cleft lip with or with out cleft palate and 15% of the time for babies with cleft palate alone).
Cleft lip and palate. A cleft is a gap or split in the upper lip and/or roof of the mouth (palate). It is present from birth. The gap is there because parts of the baby's face didn't join together properly during development in the womb. A cleft lip and palate is the most common facial birth defect in the UK, affecting around one in every 700 babies.
