We have heard of Mouth and Throat cancer.

Teeth are bones, and bones are tissue. Cancers that metastasize (spread), spread to all tissues, including bones. The reason we don't see it manifest in bones is because bone cells are long-lived (they have a lifespan of up to 25 years).

Yes, but it doesn't manifest soon enough to see it

Thanks.

Will you classify "Teeth Cancer in Humans" as rare or no?

Can the cancer cells spread from mouth or throat to Teeth in Humans?

Thanks & Regards,
