Epstein’s pearls, Bohn’s nodules, and gingival cysts

我们一般叫做上皮珠或者马牙，但是英文文献里面似乎有多种称呼。

Epstein pearls have been labeled as epithelial debris of the tooth follicle, gingival glands of Serres, and as abortive enamel organs on the Palatine area. On the other hand, Bohn’s nodules are those found along the buccal and lingual aspects of the dental ridges. Dental lamina cysts are usually found on the crest of the alveolar mucosa. Currently, Palatal cysts of the newborn are the preferred term instead of Epstein’s pearls, Bohn’s nodules, or gingival cysts1.
