If your hamster has very yellow teeth, your finger or any body part could get infected. You may get a little sick after if you realize your hamster doesn't look healthy, etc. If it is a wild hamster, you may get sick, and you may get some type of disease since they live in the wild. You probably won't die from the disease you might catch, but you never know. Always put on rubbing alchohol to clean the wound or the bite might get infected.
