Default Broke teeth on main gear

I've been actually flying my Esmart 600 for a few weeks now, after 6 months of only hovering. After an uneventful flight I noticed there are 4 teeth knocked off my main gear in different places. I checked the gear spacing and the small tail gear was tight with no play. could this cause the problem?. I did have a tail rotor strike in the grass a few days before, but did not notice any damage at that time, not to say that's when it happened, I just noticed it now. Any suggestions as to why this happened or how to avoid it would be appreciated. These Esky parts are almost impossible to get (they are always out of stock)

Default RE: Broke teeth on main gear

Make sure there is no wobble in any of the gears.... don't crash?
