Well, a restore should fix it anyway.

Corruption of the database almost never IME correlates with missing book formats+OPFs.

Dropbox can disappear books via syncing conflicts, leading to duplication of old versions, but normally the database either disappears or remains intact but possibly old. Not corrupted.

tl;dr your files (database aside) are probably all right, so a restore will solve everything.

Prudence would dictate you backup your whole library Just In Case, though.
