Just over a month ago One of my girls Tina had snapped one of her lower front teeth, she had no problems eating so I just kept an eye on her. Her bottom tooth grew back and everything was back to normal middle of last week sometime. I checked her teeth on Sunday during clean out day and they were fine (now part of weekly checks as paranoid now). Checked her last night and she has snapped the same front tooth again.

Again she is having no problems eating at all but just really worried now. She is not a bar biter as she lives in a hutch and the wire mesh would be too small for her to bite and pull. What could she have broken them on and why has this happened again?
Does she now have a front dental issue? What can be done to solve this re-occurring problem?
Thanks
 
The tooth should grow back fine hopefully

Cookie snapped her front tooth twice is same place. She seemed to have a weakness in the spot. It didn't cause her any issues other than we had to cut veggies int strips for her so she could pick the up easily.

Tagging in @furryfriends (TEAS) for you.
