Do we puke stomach acid alongside the substances that our stomach doesn’t want to digest? If we do, does our esophagus, teeth, tongue etc. get damaged in the process? If we don’t, how and why?

Yes to both, if you vomit rarely it doesn’t make enough damage for it to be relevant so it’s fine.

But when you vomit frequently, for example people suffering from bulimia or other eating disorders, you will damage your oesophagus and the enamel of your teeth.
