title: Dentistry and the new genetics.
abstract: As environmental causes of disease become better controlled, so genetic factors assume relatively greater importance. Opportunities to investigate the genetic contribution to disease have increased dramatically through the remarkable technological developments of recent years. These developments have implications for both education and practice in dentistry, just as in any other branch of the biomedical sciences.
