Presentation
There may be preauricular tags or pits present. Tooth eruption is often delayed and there may be agenesis of many permanent teeth. The maxillary sinuses may be absent. Cleft palate is often present. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Other anomalies may be present concurrently, including cleft palate, cleft lip, or mandibular hypoplasia. [en.wikipedia.org]
