Abstract
Nonsalivary choristomas of the oral cavity are rare, have a predilection for the tongue, and are classified according to their generative tissues as gastroenteric, thyroidal, or sebaceous. Only the lingual thyroid choristoma has a malignant counterpart. Lingual teratomas are even rarer. They have been histologically benign.Keywords
