[Inclusion cysts. Case report]
Abstract
Inclusion cysts which are developmental anomalies can be seen either along the midpalatine raphe or on the dental ridges as well as on other areas of the palate in newborns. Based on their localisation and histology these are classified into three types (Epstein's pearls, Bohn's nodules, Dental lamina cysts). These are often taken as natal or neonatal teeth. No treatment is indicated since the lesions will spontaneously disappear few weeks after birth.
