The sensitive teeth toothpaste is a nitrate of some sort that deposits a layer on the porous area of the tooth thereby blocking access to the nerve endings. I think CS does the same thing by filling the pores with particles...and protecting the pores from bacteria invasion. I've had very little problem with sensitive teeth since using CS as a mouthwash.
Flouride works much the same way but damages the tooth in the process making it white and brittle in spots...and doesn't kill bacteria.
