Purpose: the aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial effect of celery leaves (Apium graveolens L.) on the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis). Methods: celery leaves were extracted by maceration method with 96% ethanol. The antibacterial test method against P. gingivalis using the well diffusion method on BHI-A media. The concentrations of celery leaf extract used in this study were 6.25%, 12.5%, 25%, 50% and 100%. Result: The results showed that celery leaves extract (Apium graveolens L.) didn’t have the ability to inhibit the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis. Conclusion: celery leaves didn’t have antibacterial effect against Porphyromonas gingivalis in 6,25%, 12.5%, 25%, 50% and 100% concentrations.
