Treatment for deep teeth marks on the nipple?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Teeth marks: Human bites can be some of the worse, with increased bacteria (more than most animals), so it depends on the exam, etc. You may benefit form antibiotics by mouth to prevent a serious infection, as well as local care with topical antibiotics and and pain meds as needed if painful. Best wishes.

Well...: Sorry to say, and time will heal. Please make sure the skin was not pierced, if so you need to clean the area with soap and water three times a day and may also need to be seen and receive a prescription for antibiotics...
