This research aims to help overcome guava leaves and stevia leaves as an antibacterial against Streptococcus mutans bacteria and kepok banana peels as a source of calcium in toothpaste preparation. The research method used a complete randomized design of two factors with three replication. The extraction used in this study were maceration and evaporation to get guava and stevia leaf extracts, the wells method to test bacterial inhibition and titration to test calcium levels in toothpaste preparations. In this study, toothpaste formulations F1, F2, F3 were used with guava leaf extract at concentrations (0.5%, 1.25%, 2%) and stevia leaves at concentrations (0.5%, 1,25%, 2%), and kepok banana peel powder each with 0.5 gram formula. The best formulation is F3, the results obtained are the inhibition zone diameter of 22.7 mm and calcium content of 68.8%.
