Bufo bufo gargarizans (burned to ash), Shidai (Mineral Azurite), Ganpi (Cortex Glycyrrhizae), Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), Baijishi (Excrement of White Chicken), Shexiang (Moschus), Jiangjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Siccatum), Xunhuang (Realgar).
The above eight ingredients are taken in equal parts. Wrap a small amount in thin silk and insert it into the carious tooth cavity. Change three times daily; this will cure the condition. Alternatively, use the following prescription:
Baifuzi (Typhonii Rhizoma), Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) each 1 fen; Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) 5 fen; Xiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma) 3 fen; Gaoliangjiang (Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma) 2 fen.
The above five ingredients are powdered. Wrap a small amount in silk and apply to the carious tooth; do not swallow the juice. Apply two or three times daily; this is also effective.
Baijian (Alumen Usticum), Xiongdan (Ursi Bile) each 1 fen; Chansu (Bufonis Venenum), Xionghuang (Realgar), Shexiang (Moschus) each 0.5 fen.
Grind the above into a powder. Use half a qian per application, applying to the gum root.
Shujiao (Sichuan Pepper) 20 grains, Zhigenpi (Cortex Rhamni), Mangcao (Illicium Anisatum), Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), Changpu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma), Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix) each 2 liang.
Boil the above six ingredients in 4 sheng of water until reduced to 2 sheng. Strain and gargle slowly with the decoction until cured. If not cured, prepare again until cured. Additionally, boiling Huoxue (Dongquill Radix) alone and gargling with it is also beneficial.
Xiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) each 3 liang; Huoxue (Dongquill Radix), Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix) each 4 liang.
Boil the above in 5 sheng of water until reduced to 2 sheng. Strain and gargle. Do this three to five times daily until cured.
Yuligenbaipi (Cortex Pruni Armeniacae Viridis) 4 liang, Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) 1 liang, Yan (Sal) 1 he.
Boil the above in 4 sheng of water until reduced to 2.5 sheng. Strain, add salt, and gargle until cured.
Xiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Yiyigen (Radix Coicis) each 3 liang; Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) 2 liang, Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) 1 liang.
Boil the above in 6 sheng of water until reduced to 2 sheng. Strain and gargle. Do this three to five times daily.
Langedzi (Semen Daturae) several grains, insert into the tooth cavity and seal with wax; this will immediately cure the condition.
Yangshenzhi (Adipose Tissue of Ovis/Capra Kidney), Gandian (Starch from Rice Wash Water) each 2 he; Niufenzhi (Jus Excrementi Bovini) 1 he; Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 0.5 liang (raw, powdered); Qingdai (Indigo Naturalis), Xunhuang (Realgar) each 0.5 liang (powdered).
Mix the above six ingredients and simmer gently in a copper vessel for five or six boils. Take six branches of peach wood growing towards the east, approximately as thick as chopsticks. Wrap the ends in silk, dip in the medicinal oil, heat alternately, and cauterize the interdental gingiva. Repeat the cauterization every other day. Within two or three days, healthy flesh will grow back; stop when cured. Before cauterizing, thoroughly scrape the tooth roots clean, then proceed. Otherwise, the flesh will not regenerate. For more than ten days, avoid raw/cold foods, vinegar, alcohol, meat, and stale odors; abstain from oil for one year.
