PRO-SYS® Extra Soft Toothbrush with Double Tapered Bristles for Extra Sensitive Gums, Pack of 4 (ADA Accepted)

UPDATE: Its years later from my first review, and this is still my go-to toothbrush brand...Ive reordered as needed. My gums are still sensitive due to medications and frequent dental work; however, they no longer bleed, and the extra-soft bristles dont hurt or cut them up. I still highly recommend! When I ordered this extra-soft bristle toothbrush, I was looking for much-needed relief for my sore, sensitive gums. Ive used a soft bristle brush all of my life, but oral medications have caused my gums to be so painful to brush anymore, leaving me with cuts and bleeding gums. I was so excited to find this toothbrush, and the results have been fantastic! I have finally found my go-to toothbrush!

Love the tooth brushes so much that I have purchased them for other family members.

I had never realized how some brushes that were labeled soft were in actuality quite harsh. When I used a Pro-Sys brush i was amazed. The Pro-Sys is kind to my gums yet very effective in cleaning my teeth. This is my second order and I am so glad I found the Pro-Sys brush.

Due to a disorder my gums became very easy to bleed Even my(at the time) couldnt get me any better ones. I am on auto buy and couldnt be happier with these REMEMBER. You dont have to brush hard Just long enough to actually remove undesirable residue from your teeth These are great for those like myself with sensitive gums

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

Best toothbrush! Soft & gentle on gums like manual toothbrushes should be, & the way they were many years ago. I have tried many different ones in the past year, and this is by far the best & most reasonably priced. I just wish they were made in the USA, instead of China. I would even be willing to pay more for them, if they were MADE IN AMERICA!!!!

Verdict: 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.

Pro-SYS toothbrush is excellent and I am glad I bought it. Have been looking for this product for a long time. I will reorder when I need one. VL

I love this brush, even though usually, the average time to switch out toothbrushes is 3 to 4 months while these started to show signs of brittleness from normal use in 6-7 weeks - a small price to pay for a soft efficient and attractive toothbrush that benefits sensitive gums and teeth

I love how these brushes clean my teeth. Also no harshness around my gums when I brush.
