Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine heritability estimates for dental caries traits and sucrose sweetness preference. DESIGN: Participants included 115 pairs of twins 4-7-years-old. Caries exams followed NIDCR criteria where the severity of the lesion was also determined. Twins rank...
