Mieke,

When I have had a piggy with a broken tooth, it has not taken long before the tooth regrows to the correct level. Sometimes I have cut their veggies into strips or grated them until their teeth are straight again but some piggies seem able to eat normally.

If the broken tooth has a jagged edge it could be trimmed to shape but if you do not feel competent to do this yourself, just keep an eye on Chico and make sure that he is getting enough to eat. You could always supplement his food with some syringe food if you feel he needs it.

Penny and the Piggyfriends.
