A toothbrush is described which comprises, normally in the form of a single piece,; an elongated handle (10); a head (20) carrying, on its front face, a set of bristles (40); and a flexible neck (30) joining the handle (10) to the head (20) and comprising a pair of front and rear longitudinal beams (31,32) spaced from each other by a transverse through aper- ture (33) and having their opposite ends joined, respectively, to the head (20) and the handle (10) by localised bending means (34) which allow the beams to operate as parallelogram articulation arms when the head (20) is forcibly displaced transversally with respect to the handle (10) and in a plane containing the axis of the handle (10) and parallel to the axis of the bristles (40), from an inoperative rest position to operative positions. The brush is provided with a shock ab- sorbing means (50), acting against the neck (30) and prefera- bly by means of an elastic element fitted into the aperture (33) between the beams, in such a manner as to be elastically deformed when the head (20) is displaced from its inoperative position to any of its operative positions.
