I'm assuming youre talking about teeth here:

There's really not much that can be done. Teeth don't grow back much, if at all. If it's really small (but then the doc usually call it an erosion instead) it may be possible slow it down by using fluorine-enriched mouthwashes and/or chewing gums. If it's bigger, get it filled. if it's really big, you may have to have the tooth extracted.

To avoid getting more, ask a dental nurse to show you how to brush properly, do it regularly, and try not to eat snacks or drink sugary beverages too often during the day.
