Teknik pengambilan sampel yang digunakan ialah total sampling dengan jumlah sampel 30 orang. Dari 30 subjek yang diperiksa, sebagian besar merupakan wanita, usia 17-27 tahun. Lamanya menyirih terbanyak 6-10 tahun, dengan frekuensi terbanyak 1-3 kali sehari, bahan campuran menyirih yang paling banyak digunakan ialah campuran sirih, pinang dan kapur. Faktor pendorong utama menyirih yakni karena keinginan sendiri, dimana tujuan menyirih terbanyak yakni agar gigi menjadi kuat dan sehat.
