Got bit- not a huge deal, but a question on snake teeth

Well apparently a medium sized frozen mouse (all the pet store had last week) wasn't quite enough for my 4-year old corn snake, so he decided to go after my finger after gulping down a mouse. It didn't really hurt me too much, but I was surprised and flinched a small amount. The problem is that 2 days later I pulled 2 (rather small) teeth out of my finger. Will this be a big deal for my snake, or will he recover fine? I've heard bad things about snakes getting infections after losing teeth, so is there anything I should watch out for?
