It is likely that you have seen kids with a cleft in the lip sometimes continuing into the palate (or roof of your mouth) or tooth/teeth missing from birth. Well, these are what are called congenital anomalies or birth defects.
Teeth that a child is born with are known as natal teeth. They occur in about one in every 2,000 to 3,000 babies. They usually develop in the lower gums and have little root structure meaning they are often wobbly. They are not usually well formed but can injure the baby's tongue when it is breastfeeding and can cause a breastfeeding mother pain.
