Both limestone and tooth enamel (or bone in general) are compounds involving calcium. Although their precise compositions are different (limestone:CaCO3, tooth, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) and they behave quite differently, it can be assumed that they behave the same way when faced with a corrosive agent. It can be quite a challenge, for example, to get real tooth enamel to illustrate the corrosive effect of Coca-Cola.
