Perhaps I'm wrong but everything I've heard is that nursing necklaces should not be used for teething. I wore a nursing necklace once my son was around 4-5 months and started really playing with everything and getting distracted. They help keep them focused toward the breast and give them something to occupy them during nursing. It really did help us as I was tired of having a little hand exploring my face and mouth or pinching my skin or him popping off constantly to look elsewhere. Also, if I was dressed for work I didn't want his little hands pulling at my nice clothes. There are some pretty ones that could be worn as regular jewelry too so you wouldn't necessarily have to remember to put one on each time you nursed.

I have a couple strands of Chew Beads for teething (not nursing). I definitely don't think they are necessary, but I love them! I can't really wear regular necklaces these days because my LO will grab and pull and nom on them. Chew Beads are made to be grabbed and pulled and nommed, and they make me feel a teensy bit more dressed up. I have them in black and red. I wash them in the dishwasher or just with soap and water every few days.
