Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, One thousand.S., 1000.D. [1]

A cleft chin, chin cleft, dimple chin, or mentum dimple is a dimple on the chin. It is a Y-shaped scissure on the chin with the underlying bony peculiarity.[one] The chin fissure follows the crevice in the lower jaw os resulted from the incomplete fusion of the left and correct halves of the jaw during the embryonal and fetal development.[ii]

This is an inherited trait in humans, where the dominant cistron causes the fissure chin while the recessive geneotype presents without a cleft. Even so, it is as well a classic example for variable penetrance[3] with environmental factors or a modifier gene possibly affecting the phenotypical expression of the actual genotype.
