Abstract :
Caries is caused by microbial activity of a
fermented carbohydrate. The results of Basic Health
Research (RISKESDAS) state that the largest proportion
of dental problems in Indonesia are damaged/cavities/sick
teeth (45.3%). Preventive efforts gargling mouthwash
contains antibacterial, long-term use has side effects, so
we need herbal ingredients that have antibacterial
properties, one of which is celery leaves. This study aims
to prove the potential of celery leaf extract (Apium
graveolens L.) as a mouthwash ingredient in inhibiting
the growth of caries-causing bacteria and being able to
reduce the number of bacterial colonies compared to
formulary controls without active ingredients. This type
of research used laboratory and field experiments with
pretest-posttest consisting of the intervention group of
celery leaf extract mouthwash formulation concentrations
of 30%, 15% and control formulary without active
ingredients, the sample consisted of 39 people, the sample
was rinsed for 1 minute. Saliva collection before and after
gargling. The variables studied the inhibition of bacteria.
The results of the inhibition of Streptococcus mutans
bacteria carried out by the ANOVA test at a
concentration of 15% showed a mean of 5 mm and a
concentration of 30% with a mean of 6.2 mm with a pvalue of 0.000 which means that there was a significant
difference in inhibiting Streptococcus mutans bacteria,
while the control had a mean of 0. 0 mm which means
there is no resistance formed. The conclusion of this study
is that giving celery leaf extract mouthwash Calculate the
inhibition zone with a concentration of 15%, 30% being
able to inhibit bacteria while the control has no inhibition
on Streptococcus mutans bacteria.
