In the current work, herbal substances that are accessible, affordable, and effective are being incorporated into personal hygiene products. Psidium Guajava, a member of the Myrtaceae (Guava) family, has several antibacterial, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, and antioxidant properties in its leaves. Guava leaf extract has long been utilised for its therapeutic properties.The primary goal of this research is to use the herbal component to create toothpaste that can efficiently remove oral germs. We bought guava leaves at Nesari, Maharashtra. For extraction, guava leaves were first cleaned with distilled water before being sun-dried for three days. For its antibacterial activities, guava leaf extraction was done by cold maceration with 70% ethanol. The main component of this extract was utilised to make herbal toothpaste. In a laboratory, toothpaste formulations are carried out. Numerous assessment tests, including those for pH, spreadability, foaming capacity, moisture content, and zone of inhibition, were performed on the formulation. All evaluation test results were discovered to be within the acceptable ranges. The antibacterial activity of guava leaf extract on Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and other bacteria that depend on saponins, tannins, and flavonoids is determined by extraction against ethanol and the agar well diffusion method. However, the extract itself can be utilised to treat sore gums. The major ingredient in guava leaf extract is pentacyclic tri-terpenoidguajanoic acid.
