Am I the only one who is slightly bothered by the fact that toothpaste is artificially sweetened?

edit: I mean, do we really honestly need our toothpaste sweetened at all?

Have you tried any of the Crest Whitening Expressions (http://www.crest.com/products/wtExp.jsp) toothpastes? (I hate these ridiculous names, I feel silly even writing that!) They come in Lemon Ice, Vanilla Mint, "Cinnamon Rush" and something called "Extreme Herbal Mint." I'm not crazy about mint, so I tried them when they first came out and there were sample sizes available. I really like the Vanilla -- it barely has any mint flavor at all. It's fairly sweet, but the other three sound like they'd be less sweet. (I remember that the lemon was pretty good, but I don't remember how sweet it was.)

They're not for sensitive teeth, but maybe you could alternate? Then you'd still get the sensitivity treatment at night but you'd have a better taste in the morning (or vice versa).
