I went back to using my old worn out brush.

Every dentist I have spoken with about toothbrushes has said the same thing. Get one with soft bristles. These have not only very stiff bristles but they are sharp as well. The tips don't feel like they have rounded tips. While was using them I would run them under hot water for a minute to soften them up. It was better but still didn't really solve the problem. I went back to using my old brush. The old brush was stiff as well when new but it is soft now and the tips were never sharp like these are. I am sure that someone thought that the strangely configured brush was a big improvement, however, they must not have actually tried using it before going ahead with the redesign. The more you use it the more sore your gums will get and I do not have ANY sign of any gum disease at all.
