Study was made of the occurrence, size, and bilateralism of Carabelli''s tubercle in 100 physically normal 9-yr-old Iowa children of Northwest European ancestry. Basic data were controlled observations on dental ecasts, e.i., observations of the lingual surfaces of the mesiolingual cusps of the permanent maxillary 1st molars. Eighty-four % of the 200 1st molars examined showed some amt. of supplemental protuberance. Approx. 60% had moderate to large prominences, while 16% lacked any observable accessory elevation. Thirteen % of the subjects exhibited no accessory elevation on one side of the arch and a slight to moderate elevation on the other. There was a difference in the size of the tubercle on the right and left sides for 70% of the subjects.
