Default How to encourage chewing?

A while ago I took Minnie for her teeth trimming as the top ones were gettng too long, and since then, a friend has been trimming them for me every now and again. However he's getting reluctant to keep doing it, as he says the teeth get brittle after regular trimming and he doesn't want her teeth to break.

So, I was wondering what else I can do to encourage her to wear them down on her own? She has plenty of wooden things to chew on in her cage, including apple wood sticks, dog biscuits and a salt/mineral block, but her top teeth don't seem to be wearing down.

Any advice would be much appreciated.
