What is the term for a gingival cyst of a newborn found on the lateral palate?

Epstein's pearls
Bohn's nodules
Gorlin cyst
Radicular cyst

The correct answer is: Bohn's nodules

Bohn's nodules are the correct answer for this question. Bohn's nodules are small, keratin-filled cysts that can be found on the buccal and lingual aspects of the dental ridges in newborns. They are considered a normal finding in the mouths of infants and typically disappear within a few weeks after birth. Epstein's pearls are small, keratin-filled cysts found on the midline of the palate in newborns, while Gorlin cysts and radicular cysts are not specific to the oral cavity of newborns.
