What is Jaw and Palate Development Overview about?

The development of the jaw and palate involves the growth and fusion of pharyngeal arches and facial prominences. The maxillary processes form the upper jaw, cheeks, upper lip and secondary palate. The mandibular processes form the lower jaw, lower lip and parts of the cheeks. Failure of fusion between these processes can result in cleft lip and/or cleft palate, ranging from minor notches to complete separation of tissues.
