There are several control mechanisms of plaque that is by using material antiplaque as xylitol and probiotic that contained in the gum. The index of plaque is a way to appraise the accumulation ofplaque on the surface of a tooth. The purpose of research is to compare the difference of plaque index between chewing the xilitol gum with probiotic gum in children aged 9-11 years. The type of research is quasi experimental with pretest-posttest design with control group. A subject of study consisting of 60 children, divided into 3 groups. Respectively- each consisting of groups of chewing wax gum, chewing xylitol gum and those chewing probiotic gum.
