I have found the answer.

3.7.3.5. Post-Debonding Behavior at the Contact Interface

For the cohesive zone materials with bilinear material behavior (TBOPT = CBDD, CBDE or BILI on the TB command), you can specify that the cohesive zone interface be “healed” if the surfaces come into contact again after debonding.

To activate this option, use the TBFIELD,CYCLE command to define the CZM material as a function of healing cycle number. For more information, see Post-Debonding Behavior of Cohesive Zone Material in the Contact Technology Guide.
