Samples of saliva and gingival mucosa were taken before and after treatment and was grown on Anaerobic Nutrient Agar (NA) media. Data of before and after treatment were analyzed using paired t-test.Result: In group using toothpaste only after treatment increased the amount of anaerobic bacteria in saliva by 34% and decreased in gingiva by 53%. In group using the combination toothpaste and siwak after treatmenct increased the amount of anaerobic bacteria in saliva by 36% and decreased in gingiva by 33%.Conclusion: The combination of brushing using siwak and toothpaste for 10 days can reduce the amount of anaerobic bacteria in gingival samples.Keywords: Siwak, toothpaste, anaerobic bacteria
