Regular flossing and brushing keeps that feeling for me. I tend to get lapse on the flossing, and that is why I lose that feeling.
I have not tried whitestrips or any of that stuff, but have heard they help as well.

If you want clean teeth like right after the denist cleans them, then use listerine, floss your teeth, use a high quality tooth brush, brush your teeth with good toothpaste like Colgate Total. I also recommend that you brush all of your teeth including the top-bottom, and behind your front teeth.

I use plain baking soda, rinse well then use tooth paste after you rinse your mouth it feels great. Do this every other week you don't want to wear down your enamel. My dentist office always tell me how nice my teeth are. I learned this trick back in the 50's when we ran out of tooth paste. My parents had too many kids, it was easy to run out of anything. MY parents said they did this during the depression.

I like "Arm and Hammer" toothpaste, it leaves a really nice clean feeling when used twice a day. I also like to use a sonic toothbrush.

I like Tom's toothpaste brand with baking soda. My dentist has even remarked on the lack of plaque since I started using it.

one of the things i found that work best for me is using colgate total toothpaste and in between brushing chewing trident gum. but everyone is different, you just have to experiment.
