+1 - should have no problem meshing with the starter and have plenty of depth. Any problems giving you concern?
 
Changing starter but how do they look

As I said in your another post, if it was grinding badly, then it will grind sooner or later even if you replace the starter. Because the flywheel/ torque converter ring gear would usually be worn more than the starter bendix gear. Once this happens, you replace the both side is the proper way to fix.

The pic below is taken from your another video. Some teeth are already lower than others. The starter will always engage with flywheel/converter ring gear in the same 4 spots since the engine always stops at the same 4 spots. So even if you cranked the engine by hand and found better looking teeth, it won't change the first engaging point. If you change the torque converter/flywheel mounting position to change the first engaging point by removing flex plate/flywheel to crank flange bolts, maybe it would work. (Edited)
