The chance of catching a disease is actually much lower than you may think. I have never heard of anyone ever catching aids from biting their attacker.
The most important thing to remember when biting is to grab and hold whatever you are biting in place with your hands and arms. If possible reach completely around it and grab your own arm with your other hand to complete the grip around his body, arm, leg, etc.
Now bite hard, and ferociously, for added psychological impact feel free to make an animalistic noise. Almost EVERYONE is scared of being bitten.
Be sure not to "bite off more than you can chew" so-to-speak. Too much of an arm in your mouth will prevent you from applying force well, be sure to just bite the skin.
Now keep biting until he freaks out and tries to get away (this is possible because you are holding on to him, remember?). When you are sure he wants to get away from your gnashing teeth, let him go and run away or follow up with strikes as needed.
This is often the best way to get out of a hold, for example:
* If he has you in a headlock
* If he has you in a choke
* If he is on top of you pinning you to the ground.
There's no use trying to muscle your way out or use a complicated leverage technique if this simple bite can do it for you.
(besides arms and fingers, the torso, neck, nose, or ears are also great targets!)
