    The objective of this research was to determine the effect of toothpaste with xylitol on 4-year-old children at the public I.E. No. 20403 Carlos Martínez Uribe, Huaral – Lima 2023. Methodology: The research method used was experimental with a quantitative approach, descriptive type, and longitudinal design. The researcher used a checklist created for a sample of 30 children, divided into two groups. Results: The following observations were made: In the experimental group, which was provided with toothpaste without xylitol on day 1, day 7, and day 21, the salivary pH remained within the range of (6.44±0.05), with a variation of +0.14. However, in the experimental group that received toothpaste with xylitol, the pH remained in the range of 6.38 to 6.90, with a range of (6.90±0.05), showing a variation of +0.52. This indicates that the use of only three doses of toothpaste with xylitol over a short period of time was able to increase the salivary pH compared to conventional toothpaste. Conclusion: The salivary pH of children who used toothpaste without xylitol experienced a variation of +0.52. This variation was positive and significant.
