Your main database may still have all your data, but just be hidden by your current perspective. When you open an alternative database (such as the one from Time Machine), it switches to a default perspective. If you replace your main database with that one and reopen it, your current perspective settings may kick in again and just show you the limited set you were seeing before.
In your main database, did you try selecting "All Items" from the Perspectives menu to see if that shows you your missing data? (That's the best way to reset your perspective to guarantee that you're seeing everything.)
