dc.description.abstractObjective: The purpose of the current study was to develop and formulate tooth gel using Aloe vera leaf extract and evaluate. The experiment was designed to provide scientific proof of the antimicrobial activity of Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis Mill) in tooth gel formulation against bacteria Staphylococcus aureus which causes infections associated with dental caries.Methods: Transparent Aloe vera gel extract was consistently blended for five minutes at 1000 Rotations Per Minute (RPM). Carbopol 940 and Carboxy Methyl Cellulose (CMC) were used as excipients in the formulation of Aloe vera tooth gel.Results: The formulated Aloe vera tooth gel was evaluated by physical examination such as color (yellowish green), good homogeneity and smoothness. pH and viscosity of developed tooth gel preparation were found to be 7.9 and 4.9 Pa. S respectively. The developed Aloe vera tooth gel showed considerable effectiveness with a Zone of Inhibition (ZOI) of 0.022 m, according to an antimicrobial study against Staphylococcus aureus. A comparison between formulated gel and marketed products (Colgate Natural Extract Aloe vera, Himalaya Herbal Active Fresh, Dabur Red) was also carried out.Conclusion: The formulated herbal tooth gel exhibited antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. The developed formulation (F4) with the ZOI of 0.022 m could be comparable with the marketed product.en_US
