    There would not be a clear cut answer to that. There are three reasons coke rots your teeth,
    1 coke is full of phosphoric acid (the low pH environment rots your tooth enamel).
    2 coke is full of sugar (it coats your teeth with food for bacteria which produce plaque on your teeth)
    3 the phosphoric acid in coke put your balance of calcium & phosphorus in your blood out - meaning your body has to de-calcify your bones & teeth in order to get the balance correct in your blood.
    As all people have different bacteria strains in their mouths (this affects the rate of rot), and different consumption rates of calcium - then there is no clear cut answer.
    Enjoy coke in moderation like anything else. :)
