Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease caused by insulin dysfunction characterized by hyperglycemia. Diabetes mellitus can be classified into four, namely type I diabetes mellitus, type II diabetes mellitus, other specific types of diabetes, gestational diabetes. Diabetes mellitus can cause complications in the dental and oral area, such as Xerostomia, dental caries, periodontitis, periodontal abscesses, and fungal infections of the mouth.
Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of active ingredients in herbal plants on the pH of saliva in people with type II diabetes mellitus.
Methods: The research design used is a literature review.
Discussion:  The literature studied states that the content of flavonoids in different types of herbal plants can increase the pH of saliva in patients with type II diabetes mellitus.  The manifestation of type II diabetes mellitus is an increase in glucose levels in the saliva that can be metabolized by oral cavity bacteria so that it produces acid and lowers the pH of the saliva. Increasing the pH of saliva to neutral can be done by providing extracts from herbal plants that contain flavonoids.
Conclusion: The active ingredients of flavonoids in herbal plants can restore the pH of saliva to normal in people with type II diabetes mellitus.
