Not necessary, unless there is a cut or bite, because date wise you have completed 90 days of last vaccine.

Considering your statement of having taken full course of vaccination in 2021, for a dog scratch without bleeding, only washing the area with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes should be enough. But if there is bleeding, then boosters would be needed. Ideally any bite/scratch with bleed more than 90days of last vaccination has to be treated this way. But since your bite is around 90 days of booster, further details are required for proper analysis.
Next Steps
Details regarding type of dog, scratch mark, bleeding present or not, photograph of wound, occupation and consultation to consider booster vaccines.
