It depends.

Do you have a backup of the lost files?
Do you archived log files?

If the answer is yes to both,then
1) restore lost datafiles from backup
2) perform recovery

If the answer is no to either one, it depends how important everything else in the db is.
--if no archived logs, then you can restore everything to your last backup. This means all changes since that backup are lost.
--if you have no backup, offline drop of the datafile and everything in the datafile will be lost. then open the database and drop the tablespace.

If you have the backup of all the datafile, controlfile and archivelog then only you can recover the database up to the time, on else you can recover the database (if you have offline backup) up to your last backup
