The type of this research is experiment with completely randomized with pre-posttest control group design, with 105 samples divided into three treatment groups and four control groups. There is a significant decrease in the amount of Streptococcus mutans in dental plaque after receiving treatment at 95% confidence level with P=0.00 or P<0.05 and there was no difference in effectiveness of toothbrushing and gargling using 10% ethanol extract of leaves beluntas with 0.12% chlorhexidine and 1% triclosan to decrease the amount of Streptococcus mutans bacteria in dental plaque, with P= 0.166 or P> 0.05. Both beluntas leaf ethanol extract gargle and toothpaste group with positive control group using chlorhexidine and triclosan, is equally effective in reducing the number of colonies of Streptococcus mutans in dental plaque, so it can be concluded that the extract of beluntas leaves ethanol effectively decreases the amount of Streptococcus mutans colonies in dental plaque and there is no difference in effectiveness between the treatment group and the control group.
