Abstract
The quantitative hierarchy for maxillary molar cusp size is established. Sexual dimorphism, not present in measures of individual cusp size, is present when the size contributions of individual cusps and ridges are summed. The twin data analyses show a low level of hereditary variability for these dental traits.
