If you are wanting the turf to repair quicker, the best thing to do will be to plant some new turf there. If you are wanting to do this, please have a look here for more information - https://lawnsolutionsaustralia.com.au/lawn-care/how-to-patch-up-bare-areas-with-new-turf/

Alternatively, you can wait for the surrounding grass to grow back over, however this may take a few months.

Yes give the dry and dead material a rake, aerate the soil and apply a fertiliser (something like our lawn solutions premium fertiliser is ideal) to help give the lawn a boost in recovery. Ensuring you are mowing regularly will also assist.
