Given the nastiness of the human mouth, "fight bite" (hand cuts from accidentally punching teeth) is often treated with antibiotics. On that basis I'd stick with at most 1d2 damage, plus lingering status effects to the hand unless you have disease curing abilities or medicaments. Maybe the damage sticks unless specially treated, and untreated you can lose the hand to infection?

Yeah, but that would be treated like poison damage at a later time with a savings throw.
