Only a thought........What if you drilled a hole in the gear, cut a little
slot from this hole to the outer edge of the gear where the tooth broke off
and then make up a piece in a O= shape. Surely this would have some
mechanical strength to it.

Why not just drill a couple of holes where the tooth was and insert a
couple of brass pins, shape to fit. One brass 'tooth' against a steel
gear should work.
