Abstract
Toothpaste is a widely used product for oral hygiene, commonly employed for teeth and mouth cleaning, as well as for treating various dental disorders. Dentists often recommend toothpaste for addressing issues like sensitivity and chronic gingivitis. Herbal toothpastes harness the antibacterial and antimicrobial properties of different herbal extracts from crude drugs. These formulations utilize a variety of herbs and bark, among others. Evaluation of herbal toothpastes involves multiple tests including physical examination, relative density, abrasiveness, spreadability determination, pH determination, homogeneity, foaming, stability, moisture and volatile matter determination, moisture content, foaming character, and organoleptic evaluation, among others. This research aims to consolidate on herbal toothpaste, covering its introduction, various formulations, and evaluation parameters, facilitating researchers interested in exploring this area further.
