Use of herbs and spices for treating various health related problems are known and even practiced in our day to day life. Traditional medicinal system includes these herbs and spices for various dental problems like dental caries. The present microbiological study was aimed to evaluate the phytochemical screening and antimicrobial activity of two spices Trachyspermum ammi and Trigonella foenum graceum against microbes present in oral cavity (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Streptococcus mutans).The antimicrobial susceptibility of each plant extract was tested by using agar well diffusion method on Muller-Hinton Agar (MHA) media and zone of inhibition was measured in millimeters. Results showed that the plant extract of Trigonella foenum graceum has wide spectrum of antibacterial activity to be effective against Lactobacillus acidophilus and Streptococcus mutans as compared to Trachyspermum ammi.
