In this research the effect of Jamansolution (Hezar Co., Iran) was compared withBiotene mouth rinse in an in-vitro study.METHODS:Biotene mouth rinse (Laclede Co., US) contains 4 antibacterial enzymes.Four different bacteria such asStreptococcus (S.) salivarius, S.sobrinus, S.sanguis and Actinomyces viscosus were cultured in the lab. The effects ofJaman, Biotene and penicillin on these bacteria were tested by using disc diffusion method.RESULTS:The antibacterial effects of Jaman and Biotene did not show any significant differences. Both of Jaman andBiotene showed significant differences with blank disc and penicillin.CONCLUSIONS:According to the results, the antibacterial effect of Biotene is not better than Jaman
