the stomach gastric juices are supposed to be very acidic, and corrosive but why isnt it as strong when you bring it up when you vomit?

Well if you do it too often it can rot your teeth, and it is well known that bullimics can have burns on there fingers from the stomach acids, if that is what they use to provoce being sick.

They will do if vomiting is a regular occurrence...hence the awful state of the teeth of sufferers of bulimia. Once in a while does not have too bad an effect as you tend to wash your mouth out after and the saliva is alkaline in nature so it will help neutralise the stomachs acidity.

They would if you left them hanging around in your mouth for long enough..... Bulemics have bad teeth because they throw up too much and their teeth are rotting away. But hey who cares about rotten teeth when you're a stick insect!
I once read that if you could put your hand down into your stomach the flesh would all be gone within 2 minutes, so quite strong but I wanna see proof!

It would corrode your mouth and teeth if you were excessively and repeatedly sick on a long term basis. For example, people who suffer from bulimia often have trouble with their teeth as the gastric acid has corroded them

It would if you vomited frequently. This is how most anorexics die because the stomach acid eats away at their throats until it erupts.

They would if you threw up often enough. Bulimia (binge eating, then vomiting it up) can result in tooth decay for that reason. Most of us don't barf often enough for it to be a problem.

I don't know but that is what causes the burning feeling in your mouth afterwards.
