Herbal toothpaste with natural ingredients is more acceptable in public opinion than chemical-based synthetic formulations in the current oral dental care due to their safety and efficacy in reducing dental caries and preventing other dental disorders.

These herbal ingredient gives anti-ulcer, anti-caries, anti-bacterial, and wound-healing properties, as well as certain unique properties including anti-cancer and anti-fungal. Herbal toothpastes were evaluated to determine important physical characteristics such as Colour-greenish, smooth in nature, pH determination- Acidic in Nature , Homogeneity, Sharp and edge abrasive particles, Foamability 7.8ml, Determination of moisture and volatile matter 6.7%, Spread ability 3.2cm, Stability study in order to develop a more effective and stable product.
