Not sure, but isn't gear tooth cut/roughed to a deeper root diameter than standard, so that grinding wheel does not touch root?
Small pitch gears may be ground from solid. Maybe someone knows approx. pitch above which grinding flanks may be switched to grinding from solid.
Not sure if all machines are capable of grinding from solid... an interesting topic for discussion.
