The present invention relates to a toothbrush with a handle, at least one cleaning zone and at least one deformable element, where the deformable element has a first flexible arm arranged relatively towards the cleaning zone and a second flexible arm arranged relatively away from the cleaning zone. The deformable element can move from a resting position in which the first arm is substantially flat and aligned to the handle, to a cleaning position in which the first arm and the cleaning zone adopt a curvature of a surface of a dentition, where the arms form a wedge being connected together at one end of the deformable element and distanced from each other at the other end of the deformable element. The first and second arms are linked by at least two bridges which are tiltable with respect to the first and second arms when pressure is applied to the cleaning zone, wherein the arms and bridges enclose a void space.
