I uninstalled mono in 12.04 by:

   sudo apt-get remove mono-*

but afterward the theme of Ubuntu changed to an ugly one. It seems that some of the themes depend on mono!!!

My question is how can I revert packages removed by that command?

That's because mono-* will mark more than just the mono framework for removal. It also removes some fonts and themes of the standard installation. Use

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop

to reinstall the packages you removed accidentally. After that, you might need to reassign Ambiance as theme in the System Settings (under Appearance) and log off and on again.
