Abstract

A set of male triplets, of whom the two youngest appear to be identical, has been followed and recorded on plaster casts from 1 month to young adulthood. Measurements of tooth size, arch breadth, length, and circumference, as well as arch relationship, were made at five stages of development. There was a general tendency for the identical pair to become more similar after puberty, and less like their dizygotic brother. Attention is drawn to the potential value of a longitudinal study on a sample of sets of similar sex triplets each containing two identical individuals.
