Group 1 was taken saliva sample before and after gargle with 10% guava leaf infusa. Group 2 was taken saliva sample before and after rinsing with 20% guava leaf infusion, and for group 3 with brand X mouthwash. Saliva samples taken before and after rinsing with all three ingredients were then examined using the Total Plate Count method.The results showed that the numbers of germs before and after rinsing with 10% and 20% casque seed infections were significantly different (sig 0.001 and 0.000). The average difference between the 10% infusa and the X brand drug shows an un-coercive difference (sig 0.947).Conclusion Guava leaves infution 10% and 20% can decrease the number of oral germs.
