This study on racial variations in the prevalence of caries and periodontal disease among 9,912 children of ages 12 to 18 in Hawaii considered racial effects in terms of general parental, maternal, hybrid, and recombination variables. The racial effect was for the most part additive on caries but partially recessive for the severity of periodontal disease.
