Meanwhile, E. faecalis biofilms cause endodontic infection. Batak leeks are native North Sumatra herb that contains antibacterial properties. This study aims to determine Batak leeks extract's an tibacterial and antibiofilm effectiveness towards S. mutans and E. faecalis. Methods: This study was a laboratory experimental research with a posttest-only control group design. The sample size was 27, consisting of 3 samples each with concentrations of 0.78%; 1.56%; 3.25%; 6.25%; 12.5%; 25% and 50% Batak leek extract and 3 negative contro l samples and 3 positive. The Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method was used to determine MIC, the streaking method to determine MBC and the Static Microtiter Plate Assays method for antibiofilm determination. Data analysis used Oneway ANOVA and Kruskall Wallis tests followed by post-hoc LSD and Mann-Whitney tests. Results: The results showed that Batak leeks extract contained MIC values at 0,78% concentration levels with an average inhibitory zone of 6,80±0,10 mm in S. mutans and E. faecalis. MBC values were undetected because there were no group capable of reducing bacteria at 98-98% and the highest antibiofilm reduction was found in 50% concentration extract with values of 85.58% for S. mutans and 90.29% for E. faecalis. Conclusion: It concluded that 0.78% concentration of Batak leeks extract has an antibacterial effect, but at 50% concentration was the most influential in inhibiting S. mutans and E. faecalis, and antibiofilm ability starts at the concentration level of 1.56%.

Salivary flow, pH, salivary buffer capacity are critical factors for developmental regulation and regression of the caries process. It is mandatory to comprehend the salivary characteristics possessed by children with SECC to perform prevention programs, given that the high prevalence of SECC in many countries. The objectives of this study were to investigate the salivary characteristics (flow rate, pH and salivary buffer) in children aged 2 years old and under that suffered from SECC and children with caries-free. This research was an observational analytic research with cross sectional design. Sample size was 30 children with SECC and 30 children with caries-free as control group. Sampling was done using purposive sampling method, with age criteria 2 years old and under and good general conditions. Examination of unstimulated salivary characteristics such as salivary flow rate, pH and buffer capacity was done using GC saliva check, with unpaired t-test used for analysis. Results showed that mean salivary flow rate in children with SECC was lower than in caries-free children, mean salivary pH in SECC children was also lower in SECC children compared with caries-free children, and the buffer capacity was also lower in SECC children rather than in control group. As conclusion, salivary characteristics of SECC children had lower quantity and quality rather than caries-free children.
