All samples were discolored with black tea. The treatment group was divided into 3 groups, there are the group that was brushed with extract red watermelon, the group that was brushed with commercial toothpaste, and the group that was brushed with aquadest. Each group was brushed for 56 min. Measurement of color changes used shade guide and spectrophotometer was carried out before and after brushed. The results of the color changes were analyzed used One Way Annova Test and Paired T-Test.Results: The result of this research used Paired T-Test obtained that the three groups has significance value of p > 0.05 and the result used One Way Annova Test has a significance value of 0.307 (p > 0.05).Conclusion: This study showed that there was no significant difference in tooth color between using extract red watermelon, commercial toothpaste, and aquadest.
