How to recover a deleted Device file?

Hi,

I want to know normally how we have to recover the deleted file.Beacaz I had deleted one /dev/ttyS0 file(character device file),during next reboot of the system this file is not created.
So how i can recover that file??Is it possible to recover the file thru inode number.But i tried with the inode number its not working.
If anybody came across this type of problem ,let me know that...how to resolve this issue...

See MAKEDEV script.
For example :

cd /dev/
./MAKEDEV -n -v ttyS0
