No, teeth are not bones. Is the "skin" lining your stomach skin? It is soft like your "outside skin," but it is not the same.

Bones are defined by the presence of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, the two types of cells that produce and dissolve BONE in the body. Teeth are made by odontoblasts and ameloblasts, which are totally distinct and different from osteoblasts.
