This paper is now a classic. It describes the pioneering work by the Oslo cleft team on alveolar bone grafting.Bhatia, S. N. (1972). Genetics of cleft lip and palate. British Dental Journal, 132, 95-103. [PubMed 4501688] [DOI: 10.1038/sj.bdj.4802808]
Gives an interesting hypothesis regarding the inheritance of cleft anomalies, but also includes insight on the genetics of other dental anomalies.Clinical Standards Advisory Group (1998). Cleft Lip and/or Palate. Stationery Office, London.
