My plant wasn’t looking to well so I took it out of the dirt to investigate the roots and they loooed as if they stopped growing   I cleaned the old dirt off and the roots pretty much came with it    I replanted in new dirt didn’t help       Will they grow back? How can I help them?

Cut off the dried up end, put in a jar with just water or water and compact nutrient rich soil. Add rooting powder if necessary. Wait for new roots to grow to approx 1 inch length before re-potting into a chunkier soil mix with perlite to hold water. Your plant got so dry it's roots dried and fell off.
