> 3 dayVerdict: Not worth it. Something like the Colgate 360 extra soft has just as soft bristles, coupled with a flexible handle (vs the prosys good, but non flexible handle), and a longer head with variable length bristles that will do a better job. There is nothing particularly bad with the prosys, but the competitors out win it in every way. I tried to find the softest toothbrush to counteract my receding gums that I got from applying too much pressure. Well, this aint it. the bristles them self are just not that soft. I tried the extra soft Colgate 360, Jordans ultra soft and this model, all in the last year. this is not softer then any of them (after few uses, out of the box this is softer). There is one difference though between the others the this: the wider head of the prosys gives less resistance when pushing down on it. the Jordans (which looks like a standard toothbrush head) has a narrower head, with denser bristles so when pressing against the gums, there is a significant difference in the resistance you get. With that said, its not any better then the Colgate 360 extra soft, which has a more advanced head. So if its not that soft, the head is less advanced, the handle doesnt flex, it made in china and the price is the same, whats the point? Its not that its bad, is just cant compete with the Colgate on design nor is it noticeably softer. I really expected a much softer experience from reading all the reviews. Update: Just went back to the Colgate 360 EXTRA SOFT - and OMG the difference. My gums barley feel the toothbrush over them, rather then the aggressive Prosys. Also, one of the brushes came defected, with uneven and falling bristles. Sorry prosys, but this is no match to the Colgate. Im downgrading my review to 2 stars.

> 3 dayThis brush works well for me, as a matter of fact I usually use it over a high end electric toothbrush but my husband said he feels like he is using a brush for a baby.

> 3 dayFinally! A soft toothbrush that is actually soft on sensitive teeth. Both my wife and I started using a sensitive toothpaste due to the fact that I drink coffee and she drinks orange juice with breakfast (both acidic liquids). These toothbrushes are gentle enough on teeth, yet still clean your mouth. They are especially good for brushing your tongue and gums, which every dentist will tell you (along with flossing) is absolutely necessary if you want to prevent bacteria build-up in your mouth (who actually wants bad breath these days?). The 4-pack is worth the money and we will definitely buy again.

> 3 dayI will always use these tooth brushes. They are so soft! I cannot believe PRO-SYS extra soft toothbrushes arent sold everywhere. It is no longer a challenge to get my child to brush. No more cavities and easy for people that have braces. Highly recommend.

> 3 dayI am surprised, at my rather advanced age, to find I am wearing braces. The orthodontist gave me lots of instructions and a sample toothbrush to use. Brushing is a big part of wearing braces and the toothbrush is critical. They gave me a special orthodontic toothbrush. Unfortunately it has a handle about the shape and diameter of a McDonalds straw. That coupled with the little touch of arthritis in my thumb means I cant keep a good grip while I am vigorously brushing around all the little brackets. You would think the special orthodontic toothbrush was designed for people with tiny hands...like maybe kids. I decided to try these brushes. They are a great choice. The bristles are very soft. The cross-section of the handle is rectangular and easy to hold. In the first photo I tried to show how the bristles are not trimmed off evenly at the end. Each bristle tapers to a point and they seem to poke under the wires and around the brackets better than any other brushes I have tried. The second photo shows the size of the handle. Very nice brushes.

> 3 dayI’ll e,love, love these tooth brushes. They do a great job cleaning between my teeth. They do, however, wear out faster than a b or all brush.

> 3 dayThese toothbrushes are very soft but the thick handles makes them hard to grip. It takes awhile to get use to them.

Greater than one weekYour gums will look forward to their massage, and your mouth and teeth to their cleaning, with this brush. No spikiness to the brushes. Brush head the right size. The handle could be better designed for a more comfortable hold, in the OralB fashion, but thats a minor gripe. Overall, an excellent brush and fair value at $13.72 for four.

> 3 dayMy husband is the one who uses these toothbrushes. So theres not much I can say about them. But he seems to like them mostly because it is east to hold them while he brushes.
