    step1: 

    Restore the backup to the same server with a different name.

    Say if your actual database is “MYDB”, you can restore the backup and name “MYBD_BKUP” something like that.

    You can restore database using SQL server management studio

Right click on Databases>Restore Database

    Step2: Once restore is success full, you can delete all the tables (to be deleted) from MYDB

    Step3: 

    transfer table from MYDB_BKUP

USE MYDB

select * into <table1> from MYDB_BKUP.dbo.<table1>

etc.. for each table
