Sea sponges don't have teeth. When you see them for sale in shops, that's not what they actually look like. For sale, you're buying their skeleton. Sea sponges do have an "excrement" for defense purposes when people come in contact with them. The rash which stings or burns/feels prickly, that can occur when in contact, is a reaction to the histamine found in some meats. Check out the link sea and sky: sponges, Below
