The oral health at the most of Brazil ian municipalit ies is still a big chal lenge to the principles of the Brazilian Health Unique System (SUS), particularly with regard to the globalization, the equity of care and high cost involved in restorative therapy. The demand for discovery of new natural products with antibacterial activity in order to prevent dental diseases and perhaps with fewer health and f inancial impacts, would be very important to achieve an effective means to control the formation of a pathogenic biofilm and dental caries. The objective of this work is to study the feasibility of the use of different snakes crude venom in inhibiting the growth of Streptococcus mutans, the principal agent involved in dental caries. Our results showed that Bothrops moojeni and Bothrops jararacussu venoms were able to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans and the component responsible for that inhibition appears to be the hydrogen peroxide. Though still not fully conclusive, the tests already carried out, show that snake venoms are important tools to inhibit the growth of pathogens, specifically those involved in caries diseases.
