Abstract

Thirty-six patients underwent endodontic surgery involving 66 teeth, with each root canal being retrofilled with either gold leaf or amalgam. A follow-up of most patients was conducted for 6 to 24 months. There was no significant difference in bone healing between the gold leaf-filled and amalgam-filled root cavities (p > 0.05). Gold leaf appeared to be a good alternative retrograde filling material and had a number of benefits over amalgam. © 1991 Mosby-Year Book, Inc. All rights reserved.
