First experience or a strong enough experience of anything can be an imprint. And I for sure would not want to start bitework while teething. But a few"not so rough" training sessions I believe can be beneficial.

One of the points someone brought up in an article which I feel makes sense is that pain inhibits. So his argument is if pain inhibits then bitework through teeting would be counterproductive. I'm not too sure of that. A little stress (of course not overdone) can be beneficial IMO.

I've also heard someone say that if you don't do any bitework during the teething stage the grip will never be as hard as it would've been the light training was done. (for reasons I cannot remember)
