Stefanie,
What I have done in situations like this is to create a "reminder game" where when a student uses a layman term we let them know and then they lose points or if they use dental terms they earn points. It is a fun reminder for them to use the proper terms and the end result is that they start using the desired terms while having fun with the game. We never do the reminding in the presence of patients so we maintain our professional demeanor.
