The concept of a gold standard is derived from a monetary system where the value of the standard economic unit of account (currency) is based on a fixed quantity of gold. In 1971 the United States unilaterally terminated the conversion of the US dollar to gold, ending the Bretton Woods Agreement and the system of international currency exchange. The US dollar was thus turned into fiat money which is a mode of currency conversion not backed by a commodity.

This brings the question; what is implied by the term “gold standard” in oral bone regeneration?.
