The samples is stayed in artificial salvia at 37° C in ultrasonic bath for different time period and then determined by U-HPLC, PDA detector. Three samples were prepared from each sample and three injections were made. Caffeic acid was investigate in the samples. The optimum waiting period is set at 5 hours, which is considered to be a possible period since the gum adheres to the tooth and is a hardly soluble substance.
