Abstract
The teeth of 7 Finnish patients with complete testicular feminization syndrome (46, XY females) were studied to obtain further information about their growth and possible somatic determinants on the Y chromosome. The sizes of the permanent teeth of the 46,XY females were as large as those of control males and definitely larger than those of control females. Testicular feminization is caused by androgen insensitivity, and persons affected are phenotypically females. The Y chromosome apparently influences dental determination.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
