Rock or Not?

I found this by the beach and was wondering if it could possibly be a shark tooth?

I'm sorry, but I believe this is geological. Normally a shark tooth would be thinner and have a root as well as enamel. Im guessing chert pebble, but the more gifted geologists may know better...

Maybe a shark tooth that went thru diagnesis? It's about an inch and a half.

Diagnesis would normally keep the features somewhat intact. This is to thick as well, I'm struggling to see anything fossil-like at all about it. But it may be good to see what the others think, I'm notoriously bad at sharks teeth...

Sorry, not a shark tooth. Its a waterworn pebble that was worn into the shape of a tooth.
