What to do if i want back to the same clean feeling as when i got my teeth cleaned by the dentist 3 months ago?

Another cleaning: It is almost impossible to get your teeth as clean as the hygienist does. Your dentist ; hygienist have instruments that allow them to get into nooks and crannies you did not even know existed. Home brushing and flossing can only do so much.
