Hi Elena,
'Cutting your teeth' means getting experience doing something. For example, The Beatles cut their teeth as a band in Amsterdam.

Cutting teeth in the literal sense means when your teeth start to grow as an infant. In this context it is saying something along the lines of the band are breaking through.
