Standard.

I purchased the Colgate Extra Clean toothbrush in the soft texture. On the very first use, the bristles still felt a little stiff but it did feel better with repeated use. It didn't irritate my gums either. I do like the shape of the brush head for cleaning most of my teeth but I found it to be too big for my back teeth. This could vary according to everyone's individual mouth shape/space but for me, personally, it could have been smaller. In general, the toothbrush does the job and is worth picking up when it's on sale.

I am very happy with this toothbrush. It is a great price at only around $3. I use the "soft" bristle and it is actually a little more firm than I wanted, but it seems to get right in between each tooth, almost like a floss. It really digs out any build up and I can feel it scrub off tartar and stains. I like that the head of the brush is a bit smaller. I can maneuver it better around my mouth. It also has angled longer bristles on the end of the brush that really get to m back molars.

I am very happy with this brush and feel it works well if not better than some other manual brushes prices way higher.

These usually go on sale for $1 and they even come in multipacks.
I found the medium to be a bit to stiff for my liking even though I usually use medium bristle toothbrushes.

The bonus to this? It has a tongue scraper on the back of the brush head! Cool!
