This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of temulawak essential oil extracts on the growth of S.viridans.Temulawak is extracted using the steam and air distillation method. Inhibition test was carried out using the disc diffusion method. The concentration of essential oil extract of C. xanthorrhiza Roxbused were 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.The research data were statictically analyzed using SPSS with the Kruskal Wallis test. The averageinhibition zonediametersatconcentration of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% is0 mm, 8,22 mm, 12,16 mm, and 16,1 mm.Data anaylisisusing Kruskal Wallis showed a significance value of 0,00 (p<0,05), which means that it has a significant difference.Essential oil extract of C. xanthorrhiza Roxb has antibacterial activity against S. viridans.
