Relative contributions of genetic and environmental factors to palatal morphology: a longitudinal twin study
Additive genetic and non-shared environmental factors primarily influenced palatal morphology during development. While the genetic influence on different aspects of the palate varied throughout development, it was particularly strong in the posterior region of the palate and during the permanent dentition stage.
