The ethanol extract of lime leaves is known to have an antibacterial effect against Streptococcus mutans which causes caries, making it suitable for use in gargarisma preparations. This research aims to produce mouthwash preparations based on ethanol extract of lime leaves, and determine its activity against Streptococcus mutans bacteria. The preparation was developed with four formulas, namely F0 (base), F1 (20%), F2 (25%) and F3 (30%). Evaluation of preparations includes organoleptic tests, homogeneity tests, pH tests, specific gravity tests, and viscosity tests. The antibacterial activity test of the Gargarisma preparation used 0.2% chlorhexidine as a comparison, using the well technique. The evaluation proved that the ethanol extract of lime leaves was developed into a gargarisma preparation. The results of the activity test of the Gargarisma preparation showed an average diameter of inhibition of F0 (0 mm), F1 (15 mm), F2 (15.6 mm), F3 (16.06 mm) and positive control (14.64 mm).
