A member asked:

I have two pin-sized holes in the roof of my mouth and i'm able to squeak.i want to know why i was born with them.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Genes & environment: The complete development of the mid face is a result of genetically complex events that may be influenced by environmental factors affecting proliferation, pattern and migration of cells. Any factor affecting this process may lead to abnormal programming of cell death resulting in diff types of abnormalities of the midface. The holes mentioned do not pose a problem. You may see ENT if you like.
