Dr. James Fortenberry of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta answered:

A hearing loss caused by noise cannot be fixed. Hearing aids can help, but nothing will bring your child’s hearing back to the way it used to be. The hearing loss may also get worse. Wearing hearing protection may keep the hearing loss from getting worse.
