I was planning on insulting you but I've decided to be helpful.
Printing gears is really dependent on the nozzle size compared to the tooth size or "module".
You want to print with a module around 2x the nozzle size. So for a 0.4mm nozzle a module of around 0.8mm. A larger module would be better and give you more accurate movement.
See the attached image for general sizing of a 12 tooth gear printable with a 0.4mm nozzle. Your choice is either to downsize the nozzle or upsize the teeth
