While the president is known for having a very photogenic smile, he does not seem to have dimples.

There is a 50% chance of a child having dimples if one parent has them and a 75% chance if the two parents have them. A child can also have them as the result of a genetic mutation even if neither parent has dimples.
Not necessarily, dimples are a dominant gene and if neither you nor your spouse passed it on, the baby will not have dimples. The chance of your child not having dimples is probably 1/4. However, if BOTH your parents have dimples, it is possible there will be a 100% chance of the baby having dimples. It's complicated. Basically there is a three fourths chance of dimples.
Discreet data.
This would depend on whether the allele for dimples is dominant or recessive. If the allele for dimples is dominant and the no dimples allele is recessive then the phenotype of the individual would be dimpled. If the allele for no dimples is dominant and the allele for no dimples is recessive then the dimples will not be expressed. If these alleles are codominant then the dimples will be expressed but not as much as in an individual who has both alleles for dimples.

You can't really MAKE dimples. Dimples are completely genetic.
