The Great Amber Necklace Debate

DS started showing early signs of teething so I began scouring the Internet for teething information and somehow got side-tracked by amber teething necklaces. I read both pro and anti amber necklace websites to see what all the hubbub is about and now I'm curious... where does S13 stand on the subject?

I choked on a pixie stick as a child- yeah just lumps of sugar. I wouldn't put a necklace on a baby ever.
"Putting necklaces on young children is dangerous. This risk must be diffused by all professionals working with small children in order to stop any publicity or sale of this ineffective product implicated in infant deaths by strangulation"
ETA: I found some science to it! I'm mobile so not sure if this will be a clicky.
