“…Homolateral similarities of the mandibular second premolars within twin pairs are more closely related to intrapair serologic trait concordances than are heterolateral similarities. 4. Bilateral concordance indices of the mandibular second premolar are greater in monozygotic twins than in dizygotic twins.…”

“…Such a value places more emphasis on environmental factors than traditionally assumed. Family and twin studies have also documented strong genetic control of major variants, e.g., missing teeth (Montagu, 1960), along with general tooth and dental arch configuration (Goldberg, 1929;Asbell, 1957). Recent studies have also indicated that single gene control of some minor tooth variants, e.g., incisor shovelling (Turner, 1967), although the majority of the data suggests that multifactorial genetic factors are involved in odontometric traits (Sofaer, 1970).…”

In a study of maxillary right first premolar morphology, multivariate analysis showed varying degree of separation between four human ethnic groups depending upon the actual metrical profile included in the analysis. Such ethnic discriminations were not possible from visual inspection or univariate analysis of individual crown diameters. Although the interpretation of such ethnic contrasts remains obscure, this study demonstrated the potential of multivariate statistical techniques in the investigation of odontometric data.
