Bone is thought to become hyperplastic, consisting of mature cortical and trabecular bone with a smooth outer surface. [3]
Over time, the cyst decreases in size and bone regenerates in the cavity space. Marsupialization could also be performed, which involves suturing the edges of the gingiva surrounding the cyst to remain open. The cyst then drains its contents and heal without being prematurely closed. The end result is the same as the cystostomy, bone regeneration.
Mastocytomas in dogs occur mainly in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Very rarely, they are found in internal organs such as the small intestine, [5] the mucosa of the mouth, [6] the nasal mucosa [7] or the conjunctiva. [8] About 20% of all skin tumors [9] and 6% of all tumors [10] in dogs are mastocytomas.

Epulis fissuratum is a benign hyperplasia of fibrous connective tissue which develops as a reactive lesion to chronic mechanical irritation produced by the flange of a poorly fitting denture.

The message reads, in part, "If your pet is drooling or foaming at the mouth look for these lady bugs. They cause ulcers on the tongue and mouth and have a very painful bite."
Bohn’s nodules, described by Heinrich Bohn in 1886 as "mucous gland cysts", are distributed over the junction of the hard and soft palate. They are derived from minor salivary glands. They are found at the junction of the hard and soft palate, and along lingual and buccal parts of the dental ridges, away from the midline. These nodules are 1 ...
