Does you dog chew on hard things, that could break her teeth?
My dog, Keito, chipped on of his canine teeth, chewing on a cow hoof. No more hooves around here! My vet said it's common for dogs who chew hard things like hooves to break teeth.
If it is a permanent tooth, you need to have your vet look at it. Just like with our teeth, if the hard outer enamel is broken or chipped, the softer interior of the tooth will decay. Keito got a filling in his broken tooth to prevent this ... it's even white so it doesn't show.

"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
