“…In newborns, mucosal cysts, Bohn's nodules and Epstein pearls were the top three most common lesions (Cetinkaya et al, ; Flinck et al, ; George et al, ). This finding is aligned with current knowledge from textbooks and reports from the literature (Neville, Allen, & Chi, ).…”

“…Three studies (Cetinkaya et al, 2011;Flinck, Paludan, Matsson, Holm, & Axelsson, 1994;George, Bhat, & Hegde, 2008) were separately analysed as they examined conditions only in newborns ranging from 0 to 1 week old. Of a total sample of 4,080, the three most prevalent conditions were mucosal cysts (36.57%) followed by Bohn's nodules (12.06%) and Epstein pearls (8.95%).…”

World Workshop on Oral Medicine VII: Relative frequency of oral mucosal lesions in children, a scoping review

et al. 2019

Objective To detail a scoping review on the global and regional relative frequencies of oral mucosal disorders in the children based on both clinical studies and those reported from biopsy records. Materials and Methods A literature search was completed from 1 January 1990 to 31 December 2018 using PubMed and EMBASE. Results Twenty clinical studies (sample size: 85,976) and 34 studies from biopsy services (40,522 biopsies) were included. Clinically, the most frequent conditions were aphthous ulcerations (1.82%), trauma‐associated lesions (1.33%) and herpes simplex virus (HSV)‐associated lesions (1.33%). Overall, the most commonly biopsied lesions were mucoceles (17.12%), fibrous lesions (9.06%) and pyogenic granuloma (4.87%). By WHO geographic region, the pooled relative frequencies of the most common oral lesions were similar between regions in both clinical and biopsy studies. Across regions, geographic tongue (migratory glossitis), HSV lesions, fissured tongue and trauma‐associated ulcers were the most commonly reported paediatric oral mucosal lesions in clinical studies, while mucoceles, fibrous lesions and pyogenic granuloma were the most commonly biopsied lesions. Conclusions The scoping review suggests data from the clinical studies and biopsy records shared similarities in the most commonly observed mucosal lesions in children across regions. In addition, the majority of lesions were benign in nature.

Unusual symptomatic inclusion cysts in a newborn: a case report

et al. 2014

IntroductionDental lamina cysts are cysts that occur as white or pink small nodules, often multiple, approximately 1 to 3mm in diameter. They are typically located on the midpalatine raphe and less frequently on the maxillary and mandibular alveolar mucosa; in the latter case these can be appear to be neonatal teeth.On microscopic examination, these lesions show a stratified squamous epithelium (two to three cell layers); it is possible to find protein, keratin and/or exfoliated epithelial cells in the lumen of the lesions.Neonatal cysts usually show no particular symptoms. They are associated with an excellent prognosis because they regress spontaneously within a few weeks and are not associated to any complications. However, if pain, bleeding or other symptoms occur, a surgical excision is required.Case presentationIn this paper, we present an anomalous case of symptomatic dental lamina cyst which affected a 60-day-old male Caucasian newborn. The surgical treatment was elective in this case and 6-month follow-ups were mandatory.ConclusionsWe can underline the successful predictability of the surgical approach; however, we consider that the treatment choice should take place in the light of medical history and clinical considerations, and always be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Further studies and reviews in this field should be performed in order to suggest guidelines for clinicians, although these cases are rare.

“…12,13,14 One of the study describing the oral lesions in newborn children found that the most common findings were oral inclusion cysts 29% of the children situated palatally. 14 Other studies about prevalence of oral abnormalities suggested that common oral lesions and conditions in newborn periods are natal and neonatal teeth, dental lamina cysts, ankyloglossia, clefts and congenital epulis of the newborn which is the most common of them Epstein's pearls and Bohn's nodules. 3,15,16 It is because of the largest researches prevalence rates does not include infants, it is actually difficult to appoint that in which age range pediatric oral lesions usually seen.…”

Aim: Previous studies about the occurrence of oral pathologies indicated that a wide range of oral lesions may present in pediatric population. Knowledge of their prevelance and clinical features is important to accurate diagnosis and provide proper managment of treatment planning. Pyogenic Granuloma is one of the benign and tumor like soft tissue enlargements of the oral cavity. The purpose of this study is to report PG which occurred in an uncommon place and at an earlier age as a rare case report. The importance to differentiate similar lesions and treatment of this condition is another highlight of this case.Case Report: A 5-months-old male infant with a mass on the hard palate which had growed in a short time is presented in this case. The infant's medical history was clear; all prenatal and postnatal evaluations were normal. Clinical examination showed a solid, pedunculated, lobulated nodule that protruded from the palatal gingival. Surgical treatment was planned under general anesthesia. Following the excision and histopathological examination, the diagnosis was confirmed as Pyogenic Granuloma. The healing was nearly completed at one week successfully. No recurrence was observed in one-year follow-up period.Conclusions: It is important that clinicians should be aware of occurrence of intraoral lesions in neonatal period. All clinical features of oral lesions and conditions should be carefully evaluate to make a correct diagnosis and detect a appropriate management of treatment planning. One of these lesions, Pyogenic Granuloma can be treated with full healing by proper surgical treatment.
