All the extracts showed varying degree of antimicrobial spectrum against Streptococcus mutans. Samples were designated by from S1 to S10 and different concentrations by upper case alphabetes (A to G) by descending order. The result of preliminary screening has been pooled in Table 1. S4 (S. oleracea), S6 (C.longa), S9 (P. emblica) and S10 (T. indica), showed the most effectiveness against S. mutans and obviously in the highest concentration (100 mg/ml, designated as A). The samples S2 (A.indica), S3 (V. negundo) and S7 (P. nigrum) showed the least acactivity. All the samples showed reduction in antimicrobial activity as the concentration were reduced and showed almost no antibacterial effect beyond concentration of 12.5 mg/ml. Sample S6 (C. longa) showed antibacterial effectiveness exceptionally in concentration of 3.125 mg/ml (G). In this study, the inhibition
zone values were interpreted as sensitive (18 mm), intermediate (14-17 mm) and resistant (
