There are several types of cleft lip, ranging from a small groove on the border of the upper lip to a larger deformity that extends into the floor of the nostril and part of the maxilla (upper jawbone).
The small groove can be a microcleft. Other than the microform type there are complete and incomplete cleft lips. Complete means it reaches up to the bottom of the nostril and the incomplete doesn't reach as far up. There are unilateral, ( one sided) and bilateral (two or both sided)
