1941 Packard 110 starter teeth jam

Twice over the last couple of years the last time being yesterday the Bendex jammed against the flywheel and locked up and froze the starter. The first time it happened I had to remove the starter, this last time it happened I rocked the car slightly in third gear and it let loose at which time the starter worked. What is the best way to fix this problem before I ruin the ring gear.

Thanks
