Once you get the dull out sharpen the other side to the same length. If the worn abrasive angle goes too far back on the tooth it is probably better to get a new chain as it can take a lot of filing to get it right. After you get it sharp, be sure to cut the drags down also. This sets how deep the tooth will cut in the wood.
