Stain area and intensity was assessed using a modification of the Lobene indexin the beginning of study, 4 and 6 weeks intervals. Collected data analyzed using Kruskal Walis and BonFerroni method.

Results: A total of 75 patients were contributed in this study. Iranian whitening toothpaste and commercially were more effective than control toothpaste in removal of stain from all sites. There was no significant difference between two groups of commercially and Iranian dentifrice.
