    My first instinct is to remove the existing screws and staples and add two L brackets to each side.

      What’s the best way to remove the staples? And do you mean adding two l brackets to the front side of the drawer facing into the drawer?

        Wrestle the staples out with needle nose pliers. If that doesn’t work, cutting them flush using snips would be plan B. Really you just need to get them out of the way so you can put the front of the drawer back where it needs to be.

        Yes, I would think to put the brackets on the inside front and secure them with fairly short screws. One bracket on each side would probably be enough, but I don’t see the harm in using two on each side.
