Abstract

A brush head for an electrically driven toothbrush includes a holding part (2) that provides at least one connecting element for mechanically coupling the brush head to the electric drive of the toothbrush, wherein the holding part (2) integrally forms a stud (4) defining a pivot axis (S) about which the brush head is pivotable, and a plate (6) which at its end facing away from the stud (4) carries at least one bristle bundle (8) which at its attachment-side end includes a thickening (14) formed by surface melting. For improving the brush head, a substantially disc-shaped bristle carrier (10) is connected to a holding part (2) and includes a bore that is penetrated by the bristle bundle (8).
