'"$ CONCLUSION9n the basis of the e'#eriment therefore( the di3erences ofthe #roducts are / their #rices( and 0/ the amount of timethe" ta+e to $hiten "our teeth. Their similarities are thatthe" all manage to $hiten the consumers4 teeth and that

the" are all e3ective. 2ased on the data the researchershave gathered( &"drogen Pero'ide is the #roduct that coststhe least and ta+es the least time to $hiten the users4teeth. 5t is also discovered that homemade &"drogenPero'ide tooth gel is safe to be used as substitute forcommercial tooth#astes. Therefore( $e conclude that allhave the ca#acit" to $hiten "our teeth( but &"drogenPero'ide is the most ideal #roduct.

'"% RECOMMENDATIONS

9n the basis of the given conclusions( the follo$ingrecommendations are given:

The researchers recommend future researchers to-nd out the other uses of &"drogen Pero'ide.

The researchers also recommend being e'tracautious $hile brushing "our teeth $ith the &"drogenPero'ide #aste6 #lease ma+e sure "ou don4t s$allo$an"thing.

The researchers also recommend future researchersto -nd out if the &"drogen Pero'ide #aste can $hitenother materials( not onl" the teeth.
