The bad teeth are easier to deal with - your veterinarian can float the horse's teeth and generally within 6-12 months get them back to being relatively normal. It may take several rounds of floating to get the teeth leveled out and realigned properly, though.
The undernourished is more concerning - severe malnutrition needs to be addressed by a veterinarian, who will probably want to consult with an equine specialist or nutritionist. The major problem with bringing an underweight horse back up to proper condition is called refeeding syndrome, and in horses the primary problem seems to be significant electrolyte imbalances that can cause death if not managed correctly. For a somewhat underweight horse, simply top dressing the feed with a half cup of corn oil once a day will start to put weight back on; you'll also want to provide free choice mid-grade grass (NOT alfalfa) hay.
