Abstract
Dentifrices are products that are primarily used to maintain oral hygiene, including breath freshness and tooth decay prevention. Throughout the day, oral hygiene can be kept up by using a variety of dentifrices made from both herbal and artificial substances. This research was done to create a tooth powder that can be used to maintain good oral hygiene and to combat the negative effects of the synthetic components used to create traditional tooth powder. Several natural substances with antibacterial and antiseptic qualities were used to make the toothpowder. Myrobalan neem, amla, clove, cinnamon are the herbal ingredients which created the perfect tooth powder that can satisfy all the necessary requirements to keep the mouth fresh and to prevent tooth decay caused by germs. To make sure the created tooth powder has all the necessary qualities to be used against dental problems, it was tested for its organoleptic and physical characteristics, including colour, odour, taste, stability. foam ability, and abrasiveness. The outcome was determined to be within the legal bounds.
