I would recommend restoring the table to a temporary table and then using something like:
INSERT INTO main_table SELECT temp_table.* FROM temp_table JOIN main_table USING (pk) WHERE
main_table.pk IS NULL
Someone else here might have a more efficient way of phrasing that insert statement (I'm still fairly new to the concept of anti-joins). But I think something like this should work for you.
