From what I've gathered, toothpaste is "nice-to-have" - the mechanical aspect of brushing (gently, with a soft brush, lest you damage your gums!) and flossing is much more important (which is why you need not go with anything more extravagant than the cheapest brands, so long as they contain fluoride. It just doesn't matter that much).
