it depends on what you feed em as to what the bite marks look like. and whether or not if it shows real good depends on how bad the bite is. if you feed live you should NEVER leave the prey with your snake unattended. so i guess the answer is yes but if the wound is visible you need to treat them with something it was recommended to use neosporin without painkiller, or better yet take it to a reputable vet who has an understanding of reptiles.

Are you worried about getting "tagged" by your Burmese ? All snakes can bite but that is obvious. Size can be a factor on the severity of the bite. An 18 inch baby Burmese bite is about the same as a 3 foot corn snake bite. Being "tagged" by a 24 foot Burmese is an experience I have "enjoyed" on several occasions during my "reptilian" career. As far as "giant snakes" and bites, the Anaconda bite is the nastiest non-venomous snake bite that I have ever experienced. They seem to have an anti-coagulant in their saliva.

Look at her bite mark and see for yourself whether it shows real good.
The fact that your burmese python is albino/green will not affect the bite mark.
The full bite mark of a python should show 2 u-shaped or curve-shaped rows of teeth marks, more or less like this: ( ).

Yeah, their teeth are sharp. I saw a guy who got bit on the face and you could see the two rows of teeth.
