You bet they are. Gears that are practical have to withstand pretty large forces, like the gears in a car transmission. Gears in power generation stations have to withstand even larger forces. In these applications simplicity is key, but what about applications that can benefit from some complicated gear shapes? Well, there aren't any (at least not yet), but there is always art. Check out the videos below of a cube gear and a heart gear.
