If the ring gear on the flywheel is bad it will chew up the teeth on the starter gear. This will not make the flywheel turn, you will hear grinding. Another thing to check is the bolt holes that mount the starter can get elongated and the gears will not mesh properly. This will wear out the ring gear, more grinding. Some starters also need shims to properly engage the gears, more grinding.
D_B covered electrical. Just a few things to check if the starter turns.
Good luck.
