Abstract: The present invention relates to a toothbrush utilized for properly cleaning all teeth, including hard to reach back teeth. It includes a tapering head having bristles extending outward from its end. This toothbrush improves the quality of brushing by being configured to be readily maneuverable within confined portions of a user's mouth. The brushing surface formed by the bristles is substantially planar with the distance between adjacent bristles being substantially consistent throughout the head. This assures an even cleaning of the teeth, and also provides for even wear of the bristles.
