What is the jaw size of a REGULAR shark?
There are many different sharks, but I do not know which could be called, "Regular". But, assuming that you are asking about the shark jaw of a fish, and not the mechanical tool called a, "Shark jaw", the common range is from 2 inches to 15 inches, in my opinion. (There are lots of foot-long sharks in people's aquariums, and of course, in the ocean; hence, the 2" size) Of course, the jaw of, say, a great white shark can be significantly larger, while the largest shark jaw known (a fossilized shark) is over 12 feet in size, fully opened. If you want to own this monster jaw, you can buy it for around $500 million, as I understand it.

How are a sharks teeth replaced?
Shark's teeth are constantly being replaced due to the fact that they fall out frequently. When a shark loses its tooth, a new one takes the place of the other one. A shark's mouth is literally a conveyor belt of teeth with rows of teeth ready to replace one that has fallen out. When a tooth is lost, a replacement moves up in the jaw to take its place, sometimes in as little as 24 hours.
