Objective: To explore the influence of gallnut extract as a root canal irrigants in the curative effect of chronic periapical periodontitis, and to clarify its mechanism. Methods: A total of 192 patients diagnosed with chronic periapical periodontitis were selected and randomly divided into control group (distilled water), hydrogen peroxide group, sodium hypochlorite group and gallnut extract group (n=48). In the process of root canal treatment, four irrigants were used respectively, then the curative effects 1 week, 6 months, 12 months after treatment were observed and compared. Results: After root filling treatment, the cold and heat stimulation of the tooth was insensitive in clinical examination, percussion (-), loose degree≤ I°, no swollen gums, bleeding on probing (-), no fistula, normal function of the exercise of chewing, decreased or disappeared transmission area in periapical bone in X-ray photo, and those metioned above were considered effective treatment. After 6 months of treatment, the effective rate in gallnut group was 89.4%, and there were no statistically significant differences compared with hydrogen peroxide group (91. 1%) and sodium hypochlorite group (91. 5%) (P>0. 05), but there was significant difference compared with control group (67.4%) (P0. 05), but the ratio of tooth from improvement to recovery in gallnut group was higher than those in hydrogen peroxide group and sodium hypochlorite group. Conclusion: Gallnut extract as a root canal irrigants has good antibacterial and cleaning effect, and can achieve the aim of curing the chronic root periapical inflammation and preventing the infection.

RESUMO
The main objective was to research the process of gallnut suppository preparation with its water extract as the main drug, and evaluate its irritation to rectal mucosa. gallnut extract was obtained by decocting method, and its suppository preparation was obtained by fusion method with semi-synthetic aliphatic esters and rose flower oil as the matrix. Weight difference and in vitro melting time limit of the suppository were assayed and UV-Vis was used to determine the contents of polyphenols, tannin and saccharide. The irritation to colon mucosa was evaluated after successive administration of 14 days to New Zealand white rabbits. Finally, the prescription compositions were determined: semi-synthetic aliphatic esters and rose flower oil with the ratio of 2:1 as the proper matrix, with the drug loading of 54%. The prepared suppository was brown, conical and smooth. The weight difference was (1.43±0.03) g, with an average melting time limit of (17±2) min. The Contents of Polyphenols, tannic and polysaccharide were 332.4, 245.0, 3.3 mg•g-1 respectively in each suppository. The results also showed that the continuous administration had no irritation to rectal mucosa. It can be concluded that the suppository was an acceptable administrate form, whose preparation process was easily controlled, and with no irritation to rectum mucosa.
