It cannot be generalized whether the hand hits the dog's teeth or not, it needs to be injected, it needs to be analyzed according to the specific situation:

1. There is no damage on the skin surface: no need for injections, just wash your hands carefully with soapy water.

2. Skin damage: If the skin is broken and bleeding, it may be infected with rabies virus, so it is necessary to go to the CDC for an injection in time to avoid infection with rabies.

What should be paid attention to when the hand hits the dog's teeth for injection:

1. Patients are advised to pay attention to avoid smoking, drinking and other bad habits after vaccination, so as not to affect the vaccine and lose its efficacy.

2. Even if you are scratched by a vaccinated dog, you should not take chances. You should seek medical treatment in time, and a professional doctor will evaluate whether a rabies vaccine is needed.

3. Take more rest and avoid overwork and strenuous activities.
