Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The hole in the palate cane be because of the sinus or oroantral fistula secondary to tooth infection. Nothing to be panic, you can get a radiograph like orthopantomograph done to confirm the diagnosis. once the diagnosis is confirmed we can treat accordingly.
I hope I have answered your query. Take care.
