I thought one weird trick to having good teeth was outright avoiding sugary drinks (soft drinks) and snacks. I always assumed avoiding causes was more important than remediation (teeth cleaning). Anecdotally, it seems reasonable.

That said, flossing gets rid of obvious stuck gunk, so I do that (with care to avoid damaging gums).

It's not just sugar. Soda water would do it too.

And it's not just carbonated beverages. Tea also is acidic
