[Isolated canine aplasia in monozygotic twins].
This article describes isolated aplasia of the upper canines with retained deciduous canines in identical female twins. The twins are also concordant in some ectodermal stigmata. As a result of investigating other members of the family it appears that aplasia of the canines is due to a specific autosomal dominant gene.
