hi doctor. my baby was born with High arch palate... plz can u let me know the consequences and treatment.

A. Hello Mom, A high arched palate is where the palate is unusually high and narrow. It is usually a congenital development feature that results from the failure of the palatal shelves to fuse corectly in development, the same phenomenon that leads to cleft palate. High, narrow palate in addition to proper breastfeeding, an appropriate tongue resting position helps a baby maintain a good palate shape as the palate hardens over time.
