Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治口瘡幷口中疳瘡如神. 黃栢ㆍ孩兒茶ㆍ枯白礬 各等分爲末. 先以冷米湯漱口, 乃敷之. 《回春》

Translation

Treats mouth sores and gan sores of the mouth like a spirit. Phellodendron, cutch and calcined alum in equal parts, powdered. First rinse the mouth with cold rice water, then apply it. — Manbyeong Hoechun 回春 (Donguibogam · Guseol)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Cutch is the boiled extract of acacia heartwood, almost pure tannin, and the Voice chapter registered it for the same purpose. With alum it makes the most strongly astringent of the chapter's powders. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
