Before you get your verbiage wrong with your doctors, squamous cells are the natural cells that make up many parts of our bodies including the soft tissues of the mouth. If you have a cancer of these cells you most likely have a squamous cell carcinoma, though there are other types. (The majority 90-95% are SCC). Cancers frequently are named first with the name of the tissue they attack, then with their unique type. If someone found squamous cells in your mouth, you would be as normal as corn in Kansas........ if they did not, I would question what planet you were from.
