Confused. Do you mean the "floater" clutch plate between the two friction plates? That has teeth on its outside. If these teeth are worn, the will bind or jam on the interior spline grooves of the flywheel. The clutch with get grabby. Or, do you mean the ring gear which is the large final cover plate. It has teeth on the outside which are engaged by the starter motor. These teeth are SUPPOSED to have worn or angled corners so that the starter pinion slides in and doesn't bind in the teeth as it is pushed forward. Wear hear is normal and wont be a problem.
