The magnitude of the volume of saliva secreted continuously as mentioned above is influenced by several factors, among others, such as the olfactory stimuli (neuronal), The biochemical stimuli in the form of consumption of drugs and the use of toothpaste good detergent and toothpaste non detergent. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is difference in the growth of plaque and salivary secretion in the toothpaste detergent and non-detergent in the Instruction Unhas elementary students Tamalanrea Jaya subdistrict. This study is a qualitative research method Quase experimental studies with this type of research design Pre and Post-test design with control group. Based on data obtained from the results of SPSS, showed that students who use the picture difference toothpaste detergents and non deteregen different, where the students are using toothpaste detergent and non-detergent is 0.52 and while in the salivary secretion produced there are also differences at the toothpaste detergent and non-detergent that is 0, 000. Based on research conducted by the researchers, it can be concluded that students who use a toothpaste containing a detergent can accelerate the growth of plaque and can also reduce the secretion of saliva than students who use toothpaste that non detergents due to toothpaste detergent containing Sodium Lauryl Sulfate which can cause dry mouth.
